Hi Korina,
I have Opt. Little Gems(only 4 of them). They are minis and yes, Diamond has quite a big leaves.
I like them since they are like most Optimaras strong and vital plants.
I think what they said about them is truth about all AV. I have Spunky Trail(micro) which is tiny in tiny pot but plant in Oyama pot has leaves tvice as big. Even with that it is the smallest I saw. I keep some my minis in 1 oz pots and they are happy, blooming and stay little. If you put the same plant in bigger pot than it very soon starts to grow bigger. I think there are not many natural micros there. I think pots are playing huge difference.
I like minis and micros - I think it is incredible to see such a baby to bloom...and I try to keep them small but happy. If you have experience with some really tiny let me know the name.
From my plants tiny are: Teeny Bopper, Spunky Trail, Tiny Moon Goddess, Rob's Twinkle Blue, Tiny Wood Trail and maybe Lil Creeper.
I still have some which I think have chance to be very little - but they are still too young babies to judge. They will grow little bit more, than they will go into bigger pots to see if they will stay tiny...
I like bigger plants too, I just wish there was some list of micros so one can know for sure which are micros and which minis.

Alena (and everyone else interested), here is a list of those I know or am pretty certain are microminiatures:

Amoeba
Teeny Bopper (trailer)
Pip Squeak (trailer)
Little Chippery Trail (trailer)
Misty Miss
Little Jayhawker
Lil Thornbird
Rob's Twinkle Pink
Rob's Twinkle Blue
Rob's Voodoo Blue
Tiny Moon Goddess
Spring Peach
Midget Bon Bon
Krystal N
Linda's Toy
Tundra Snowflake

I've gleaned these names from various sources, so I can't *swear* to all but a few (Rob's, Tiny Moon Goddess). If anyone knows differently or knows of others, please let me know.

Korina

I have Misty Miss and Rob's Twinkle Pink and mine are growing bigger than I imagine micros. Of course there is no stipulated size for microminis - so mostly it is just personal opinions what decides.
I think it would be really great if we try to create list of micros, more or less correct but at least some informative list.
So if somebody else knows more very mini plants here we go - send your babies names...
And yes Korina - I want Amoeba so much. I heard it is very nice micro...
I have Tundra Snowflake, still do not know exactly size - maybe it will continue to grow bigger? But it has wonderful white flowers, real beauty...

Here is a list of Micro Minis I found on Reed's Greenhouse Micro African Violet page:

I put an asterisk after the ones that are supposed to be the tiniest. So far, I have Fruit Fly and Teeny Bopper. They are really tiny and I have a hard time keeping them at the optimum moisture level, even with wicking. The grow well, but don't want to bloom for me. I'm looking into some kind of tiny terrarium, but nothing so far. In the meantime am trying baggies.
I have just ordered Chantaspring, Pip Squeek, Skagit Toy Nugget and Tiny Wood Trail. I just love the littlest violets and hope to get them to bloom and to propagate.
I'm getting ready for any round robins this spring. In the meantime I would be willing to trade leaves if anyone is interested. My email address is sher bell (@) msn (.) com. (Just take out the spaces and the ( ).)

I found the answer to my own question. The mini terrarium conundrum. I can take empty, smaller, plastic drink bottles, cut out the middle, use the bottom for the dirt and plant(s) and the top, without the cap, for the lid. I can't wait to try it and its a GREEN solution. BTW ordered Lil Thornbird today, too. Yes, its so true, I'm totally addicted.

::Tooting my own horn::
Heehee, I helped him make the list for that page... :-)

Awesome, Mermaid! Do you grow micros yourself? Any advice for the best way to keep them evenly moist?
I hope to acquire more of these lovely littles. Is there a best way to propagate micros?
Thanks,
Sheryl
