    As long as you are sure they are of the Genus Saintpaulia I would say the size of the leaves isn't a problem. Do you happen to know a species name for them?

    There are many species and then when you add in the 'Cultivars' and the hybrids, there will be a difference in leaf size as well as flower form.
