African Violet is a common indoor plant, as long as it provides appropriate scattered light every day, it can promote good growth. It likes a warm and moist environment all the year round. Its leaves have very fine fluff and feel furry. It has different varieties, different shapes and colors, the most common ones are purple, pink and white, they can adapt to the low humidity and constant temperature environment on the office desktop.

The most important thing to cultivate African violets is to water them correctly, to avoid spraying them, not to spray water directly on its leaves and flowers, but to pour water directly into the basin soil when watering. You can water African violets directly to the bottom of their stems, or use spray pots with curved nozzles.

The flowerpots that cultivate African violets must have good drainage and air permeability, and do not choose cement pots, ceramic pots or stone pots with poor drainage.

The best way to cultivate African violets is to choose red pottery pots, tile pots or plastic pots with more drainage holes.

Humus soil with slightly acidic, loose and fertile soil and good drainage should also be selected for the conservation of African violets. Saprophyllite soil can be mixed with peat soil and perlite or river sand can be added properly to keep the soil with good air permeability and drainage.

Another feature of African violets is that they can be propagated by leaf cuttings. if their leaves grow too vigorously, they can cut off the leaves at the bottom and cut the petiole in half.

Leave the leaves in the fresh-keeping bag for about ten minutes, prepare some loose and drained sandy soil, the soil is slightly moist, the petiole of African violets is dipped in a little rooting powder, and then directly oblique into the soil to keep the soil moist. The temperature is kept between 20 and 25 degrees Celsius, and the surrounding air humidity is kept high. Generally, it can take root and sprout in about 3 to 4 weeks.
