All photos are examples of varieties we grow and are possible colors you will receive African Violets will require bright, indirect light with a good level of humidity & temperature. Avoid excessive dark locations due to the risk of soil mould. Allow the soil's top third to dry in between waters, reducing this slightly further in the autumn and winter. A good level of humidity and air circulation is crucial for a long-lasting specimen. Be sure to introduce a pebble tray to maintain a reliable level of atmospheric moisture. During the spring and summer, use either a 'Houseplant' or 'Orchid'-labelled fertiliser at fortnightly intervals. Reduce this to monthly once the growing period is over to replicate its dormancy period. They won't need frequent repotting, so transplant the specimen into the next sized pot with adequate drainage. We'd recommend a 'Houseplant' labelled potting mix for aeration and drainage reasons. Keep an eye out for Mealybugs & Scale that'll inhabit the cubbyholes of the foliage and flowers. Provide a location that offers bright, indirect light away from the risk of sun-scorch. Although a splash of morning or evening sunlight is accepted with this species, the risk of dehydration and terminal damage on its foliage is too risky for non-acclimated specimens. We'd recommend situating yours within two metres of a window or within a north-facing windowsill. Avoid nearby radiators to downplay dry air. African Violets are picky creatures. Not only can the amount of both irrigations and frequency hurt your plant, the type and temperature of the water used can also anger it too. During the growing months, allow the top third of the soil dry out between waters, reducing this further in the autumn and winter. To explain this further, here are some ground rules: 1. Either use fresh bottled water or tap water that has been allowed to sit for at least 24hrs before application. 2. Never use cold water; make sure it's tepid and try not to wet the foliage or flowers too often. Foliage that has been left saturated for too long (as little as just a few hours) could start to develop rot, whereas the flowers will adopt Botrytis (otherwise known as Grey Mould). 3. Irrigate using the bottom-up method. Although this isn't mandatory, wetting the foliage unnecessarily could cause basal rot to develop within its cubbyholes. Place the Violet on a plant saucer and fill the bottom quarter of the pot, allowing the plant to soak it thoroughly. Under-watering symptoms include rapid flower loss and dry, crisping leaves - these issues are commonly down to forgetfulness, too much sunlight or high temperatures. Even though an under-watered Violet is far better than a soggy one, never allow the soil to fully dry out for too long as this could reduce the chance of new buds forming. Over-watering symptoms include rotting lower leaves, yellowing leaves, a loss of buds or flowers and root or crown rot. Allow most of the soil to dry out in between waters and do not allow a pool of standing water accumulate beneath the pot as failure to keep its environment relatively dry will result in plant death. We'd recommend fertilising your specimen once every two to four weeks in the spring and summer, and monthly thereafter using a 'Houseplant' or 'Streptocarpus' labelled feed. A general plant fertiliser is acceptable too, but remember to dilute the solution by half to prevent the burning of roots. Payment Payment accepted through Paypal.
