The picotee NOID African Violet finally opened enough to photograph. It had a couple of blooms in a half-open state for so long.

Once things cool off outside I’ll move some into the upstairs/attic, but for now they’re hanging out under the one kitchen window with counter surface underneath (the sills aren’t big enough to hold plants). I also have a brand-new flame violet that will join them upstairs, but it’s currently on the enclosed porch because the rest of these guys have gotten BIG! The mostly-purple one is close to 11" and the two pink ones are at least 10".
