Nope, I do not grow only cacti. I have quite a few African Violets too. And surprisingly I didn't lose any in the past two years!
They were resting over the winter with just a few blooms here and there, but now I see a lot of little buds on many of them.
Unlike cacti and orchids I have no names for those. Pretty sure they do have one,I just didn't bother looking for it. It doesn't matter really. I like that all the same even if they are just Violets. And this one here is another unpredictable weirdo. It normally blooms with a regular flat flower with purple, frilly edges only. But once it bloomed like that. All messed up :p
This is photos from the year before and the proper flower shape:

African violets are such a pretty flower with the little shimmering petals. I was too kind to mine and overwatered him, he didn't make it.
Nice capture.
