Lakeshore AVS Spring Sale 2025

Lakeshore AVS Spring Sale 2025

Today, we made a trip out to East Toronto for the Lakeshore African Violet Society Spring Sale. It was nestled held at a little church off the beaten path.

St. Philip’s Lutheran Church
61 West Deane Park Drive
Toronto, ON

The sale and show were cozy. The people working the show were so friendly. When I told one of the women at the show that I was staring my girls on violets young, she replied that she started around the same age as Mira. Apparently, her mother kept violets and she would throw out leaves. She got upset at this wastefulness and started propogating the leaves herself. A lifetime later, she’s still growing violets.

Initially, I intended to get at most six plants. I was hoping for three episcias and three violets. I wanted to get a few Ukranian-Russian african violets.

Well, I came home with the seven violets and one kohleria shown above.

  1. LE - Polkagris
  2. EK - Chernaia Zhemchuzhina [Black Pearl 9565]
  3. Rob’s Vanilla Trail
  4. Strawberry Sundae
  5. Jolly Orchid
  6. NK - Solaris
  7. Kohleria Prince Albert
  8. K’ Angel’s Share

Mira got excited and claimed some of the plant as her own. She’s promised to take care of the faithfully.
