Cultivate African violets and multiply themselves

For many years I have a lot of beautiful African Violets (Saintpaulia) in very different colors, which I enjoy almost all year round with their flowers. The maintenance is very easy, they are only poured from the bottom, that is I only put stale water in the flowerpot coasters, once or twice a month with some liquid fertilizer, and have always had only good experiences, although I once the advice of a " Experts ", who said that the Usambara violets" can not tolerate wet feet ". Since I can only confirm the opposite! It is also important that you always removed the flowered stems!

The reproduction of these beautiful potted plants is also very easy, you simply break or cut off a leaf and place it in a small container with a little water - after a few weeks fine hair roots form, then you can leave the leaf in permeable potting soil (preferably something Plant in the sand!). But you can also wait a little longer, until a small plant has developed and then plant only.
