Texas Hybrids

You would be surprised at the number of African Violet and gesnariad hybrids that have originated in Texas! Texan growers are known for their hard work and stubborn dedication to developing hardy, beautiful plants. This is evident in the number of awards to Texas hybrids each year at local, state and national shows! The LSAVC is proud of its hybridizers. Check below for more information about our hybridizers and their plants.
