Instructions
Q: How do I transplant and care for an African violet?
A: Well, taking care of an African violet isn't difficult, although many people seem to think it is!
Just follow these simple guidelines to keep your African violet healthy and beautiful!
African violets are actually different from the wild violets (also known as Johnny jump-ups) often found growing randomly in yards and gardens. The nursery-grown varieties have large, well-defined leaves and aren't always "violet" -- these beauties come in a variety of vibrant colors, from pure white and pale shades of lavender to bright fuschia and royal purple (figure A)
Once you've purchased your plant, you'll want to find a two-part container whose inner pot has an unglazed bottom (figure B). By filling the outer pot with water and replacing the inner container, you allow moisture to be absorbed through the porous areas as the violet needs it.
Next, prepare the perfect potting mix: a combination of three parts peat moss, two parts vermiculite and one part perlite (figure C)
Then you're ready to add some soil to the bottom of the container and insert the violet. After removing the plant from its plastic nursery pot, gently loosen the roots along the bottom and sides of the root mass before placing it in the half-glazed container.
An important note: African violets like a snug fit! If the roots are too far from the bottom of their pot, they won't be able to absorb sufficient moisture to thrive.
Now all that's left is to add water to the outer container (figure D), replace the inner pot and set it in a sunny window.
By following these simple guidelines, you'll ensure that your violets stay healthy, happy and beautiful!
