For me, it's my miniature and semi-minitature african violets. I currently only have one in my 55 gallon Azureus vivarium, but am growing new plantlets to add in at least one more of my viv.
So what's your favorite flowering pl[Image: miniafricanviolets552011.jpg]ant that does well in a vivarium?

Wow! I had a clipping of the silver skys episcia, but it got crowded out by another episcia and died. I haven't tried orchids yet, but considered putting on in the empty 20L vert. Great looking flowers!
Awesome Plants! I really like the silver skies. looks like its send out some runners Smile
What's the best way to care for orchids in our vivs? I've been told not to waist my time or money on them.

Broms!
Yes ! Broms are so neat to have flower, but they just don't last that long, do they ? 1.5 weeks..or less ?
I really like my Dendrobium Indivism

And Begonia Prismatocarpa

I recently added a Monocostus Uniflorus to one of my vivs. It isn't flowering yet, but the foliage is really pretty. They look like this:
