Product description
:
African violet is one of the most popular and beloved home plants by flower growers, they do not require complex care and they reproduce well. But most people may have never heard the name of such a flower, but everyone knows its more common name-a domestic violet.
For many, growing violets has become not just a hobby, but a serious hobby. Experienced flower growers carry out work on breeding new varieties, and some of them succeed. First brought from Africa, this plant has been pleasing people with its beautiful flowers for more than two hundred years. The progenitor of the domestic violet had modest flowers and only one color – blue.
Today, the results of the work of breeders around the world are impressive. African violet has more than 70 varieties and includes plants of different sizes, colors and shapes of flowers, leaf colors, and so on. There are varieties with petals having specks, polka dots, spots, edges, stripes and others. Almost every lover of indoor flowers has violets growing at home. But in order for this plant to grow well and please the owners with its spectacular flowers, it is necessary to properly maintain and care for it.
Instructions for planting and care
:
SOWING ADVICE
Seeds are surface-sown or covered only slightly. Do not allow the soil to dry out. Containers are held in warm conditions until sprouts appear, which may take anywhere from 3-10 days. Move sprouting plantings immediately to bright light conditions, such as a south-facing window. Inadequate light is a frequent cause of failure of young seedlings. At about the time of last frost, set out seedlings into grow bags. Plants need staking and side-shoots removing.
To grow a beautiful violet in your flower garden, you need to work a little. Although this plant is not as capricious as many exotic indoor flowers, but still it requires some care and proper maintenance.
Despite the fact that the violet grows in its natural environment in Africa, where it is quite hot, it does not tolerate the effects of the scorching sun. Therefore, it is not necessary to place pots of flowers on windows with a southern orientation. Too bright and hot rays can damage the leaves and flowers of the plant, causing them to burn. The best place to place a violet is considered to be the western window. The brightness of the sun is less there, and the duration of illumination is the same. The plant will feel good on the eastern windows, but it is not worth putting it on the northern window sills. If you still had to place the violet on the south side, then the glass should be covered. You can scatter the light with the help of blinds or special materials that are glued to the glass.
Violet loves warm temperatures, the optimal indicators are 20-24 degrees. The lowest indicator, which does not significantly affect the vegetation of the plant, is +18, and at +15, all processes taking place in the plant begin to stop. It is not necessary to put violets on the loggia even in summer, sharp temperature changes can negatively affect the flowering of the plant. And in winter, the flowers standing on the windowsills need to be protected from the penetration of cold air. To do this, you can cover them with moss or other materials that do not allow cold to pass through.
Watering should be carried out regularly and evenly. It is necessary to avoid over-drying and waterlogging of the soil. The most noticeable harm is caused by excess moisture, since this phenomenon causes waterlogging of the soil, the development of pathogenic bacteria and fungi and, as a result, rotting of the root system. For irrigation, filtered or rainwater is used, as well as tap water after preliminary settling.
The first is watering in a pan, then it is necessary to drain the excess water. Irrigation by immersion method – the pot with the plant is immersed in a container with water for 10 minutes, then removed, let the water drain and put in its original place. Watering from above is carried out only when the room temperature is not lower than 22 degrees. At the same time, it is impossible to allow water drops to get on the leaves. Violet likes fairly moist air, about 60-70%. Spraying of plants can be carried out only if the air temperature exceeds +25 degrees. In other cases, a pallet with a wet drainage – expanded clay or pebbles will help to moisten the air.
Fertilizers designed specifically for violets should be used as top dressing. The phosphorus content in them should be at least 30. Fertilizers are applied with irrigation. The lack of trace elements is given out by pale leaves and poor flowering, in this case, the amount of fertilizer should be increased.
Plant disease often causes improper watering. With an excess of moisture, powdery mildew can develop, which manifests itself as a white coating. Then the damaged leaves need to be removed. When the root neck is rotting. Root rot is almost impossible to treat, so it is worth taking care of the reproduction of the plant. If the necessary care is observed, then the cultivation of violets does not cause difficulties even for beginners in this business, and the African violet will delight for a long time with its beautiful and delicate flowers and juicy greens.
