Additional Information

African Violets are such a beautiful, easy-to-grow, flowering plant for your home. Most varieties will re-bloom continually for years, and come in many colors. Violets require little space and prefer to be in a small pot, and only need a small amount of care. These plants are also easy to propagate and grow additional plants. With a little knowledge and some tips, you can be a successful African Violet grower!

Her volunteer efforts have included Kansas City’s Flower, Lawn & Garden Show, Garden & Grow, Hotline, Community Gardens, Spring Fling, Planning & Communications Committee, & Speaker’s Bureau. She enjoys volunteering at the many Master Gardeners of Greater Kansas City’s events.

Lu has been a lifelong garden enthusiast, starting in the family’s vegetable gardens on the farm, and continuing with growing natives, annuals, perennials, & herbs in her gardens today. And she has many houseplants! She tries to encourage the wildlife to visit by providing micro-habitats in her gardens.

During the spring, she can be found working in a local garden center and assisting friends, neighbors, and her HOA with gardening tasks.
