African Violets…

IMG_2677

Big, blooming and beautiful… My violets at their peak! I’ve had the plant on the right for almost eight years. They love the sunroom light. Once every week or two (depending how dry they get), I put them in a butcher tray with water. I try to catch rain water in a large bowl, they like that best!

I have one droopy violet, run roh! Seems like it happened before with my larger violet, but then it ended up being OK… Suggestions? Ideas? When you read about transplanting African Violets the process seems long and complicated. We transplanted one and it ended up doing fine. We didn’t do anything special. Let me know if you have any secrets to making these plants live long, happy lives!

Catch you back here tomorrow!

  1. Hi Barbara – these are beautiful. My grandmother grew these all of her life and would give neighbours and relatives one of the leaves to start a new plant of their own. The only thing that I know can cause problems is overwatering. Have a great day!!
