Violets growing tips...

Some African Violets need more light than others. The supermarket varieties are hardy and grow well in window light. Generally speaking, the darker the blossoms or leaves, the more light they require. Pale colored blossoms and lighter green leaves take less light. Variegated plants need more light, but cooler temperature to maintain variegation. Place these plants in the middle of a lower shelf on your plant stand.

 

Window light

When you grow a violet by window light,

be sure to give it a 1/4 turn each day

so all parts of the plant get light.

 

 

Pretty Pink Violet

This variegated violet should go in the center of the bottom shelf.  Make sure there is room for it, the leaves should not touch neighboring plants.
