Super Mini African Violets

Hi, I'm getting back into african violets and intend to start over with a focus on Micro and Super mini varieties. I understand there isn't an industry standard or AVSA class recognition for either Micro or Super minis but according to various websites Micro minis are typically around 2"-3" ( such as Rob's Twinkle Blue and Rob's Voodoo Blue) and Super minis are 3"-4". Based on this I'd categorize my Optimara Little Crystal as a Super because she naturally stays at 3.5" in a 2.25" pot.

While there are a number of forum threads listing named Micro minis, I haven't been able to locate any lists of Super Minis. Which violets in your collections tend to naturally stay under 4"? I'm not looking to transform a semi or mini into a super or micro, but would really appreciate some names of those minis that habitually remain on the smaller end of the mini spectrum without getting into micro territory.

Thanks a million! I've been bitten by the AV bug again!
