I am new to this group. I am from the Kansas City area and am a hobby african violet grower. My mother grew african violets and I inherited her african...
Just put the leaves in a baggie with the name of the plant on the baggie. Do this for each variety....then put them in the box with some filler around them...
Hello Lynn! We are neighbors...I live in Blue Springs. If you are interested there are several groups in our area. The white fuzzy stuff is it on top of the...
I do everything the same, but press the air out of the bags! If blown up, they will bounce around and get damaged. The idea is to keep them secure but not...
Hello, I am fairly new to the group and my name is Margaret Pyron, I live in Bunn NC near Raleigh NC and was wondering if there is anyone living close to me...
Hello, Lynn, I have sometimes seen white fuzzy stuff form on the surface of soil. It is probably harmless, but I am sure you want to get rid of it. I would ...

Several of my violet plants are getting little tiny flowers that aren't fully formed. This started about 6 months ago. One stopped doing it and the flowers are...

I am eagerly awaiting answers on this - wish I had one for you. I personally think that high pH levels in water can cause this, but I don't have anything to...
Nancy, These are some reasons I can come up with for abnormally small or deformed flowers. Do any of these fit your situation? 1) A plant's first attempt at...
When I first started to grow African Violets I had the same problem. Experienced friends were puzzled at the small and distorted blossoms. Then I sent 3 of my...
It's my understanding that this mold is harmless and is simply feeding on and helping to decompose the organic matter (mainly peat moss) in the potting mix....

... I hope that I can send a photo when the distorted flowers show up better. I have been taking them off as soon as they show up. Thanks so much for all of...
Aloha Lynn, Welcome to the group. If your plant is in the pot, I would wipe the solution on the pot and wipe it off. Happy Gardening Madame Ladybug Hawaii...
Evening everyone, I received the Fung Away that I was desperately looking for last week. I thought it would come in a spray bottle, ready to be used as it...

Aloha Everyone, Someone posted this in another group. Physan 20 is a fungicide, algaecide, bactericide and virucide. I didn't do any research on it yet. Does...
I see a few very tiny black knat like bugs flying around my house. I haven't seen them on my violets, but could they be bothering them? I only have 12, but...
Hi Bettye, The fungus gnat is not a problem for violets unless you have alot around your plants. They like moist, decaying plant material. I've purchased...
