The miniatures hold my heart ❤️
What a show! Your videos are inspiring!
@@sandrastreifel6452 Thank you!🌸
Your plants are beautiful, thank you for sharing them with us.
Our stores dont sell any pretty one. They are always the same solid colors every year.
Красота❤прекрасное выращивание!
Enjoyed that so much...I am new to proper AV care.
Thank you! Welcome to the hobby!🌸
They are all beautiful
Thanks for sharing your lovely plants 🙏❤
I have Cupid’s Jewel! I added it to my recent Lyndon Lyon order as an afterthought. It’s my favorite now. The picture on the Lyndon Lyon website didn’t do it justice. The color is great and it blooms like crazy. It’s like having a tiny peony bush at home.
@@BearLikeFire Cupid’s Jewel is one of my must haves, love everything about it!
Thank you for including Gundaroo, one of my favorites, and often overlooked!
More little trailers, please! 💕
Thank you - very beautiful and inspiring
Absolutely beautiful!
They're so beautiful! I hope I can find a Jubilant Jamboree and Persian Lace someday 😍
Great videos. Do you have a video on your potting mix?
Thanks! The original recipe, which I had simplified quite a bit since, is in this video: th-cam.com/video/pLLcZOfIo-E/w-d-xo.htmlsi=6MRcfAjWd0jXoq6-. Now I just use 1:1 ProMix and perlite, plus systemic insecticide granules.
Hello where can we find the shorter pots, the companies keep making them longer, thanks
Try Amazon, Violet Barn, or Enchanted Gardens: enchantedgardensplantsupplies.com/
I have a question, I read that for the good of the violet, they need to rest after blossoming or even during blossoming so the leaves have the chance to multiply get beautiful , longer stems, bigger leaves etc. Is it true? I also just watched a video where the owner starts poking all the blossoms so te violet can rest a give bigger leaves since he says the leaves of this particular violet (a wasp ) are a bit smaller. Is there any point where you do this? Thank you so much!
It’s a good idea to let them rest between the blooming cycles, especially those prolific bloomers! Once they’ve recovered and grown new leaves in the crown center, they can bloom again. Thank you for asking!
@grayturtleviolets I never new you get rid of the blooms to let them rest. I have never done this my violets finish blooming and rest for only 2 or 3 weeks and start again. Its that bad? Sometimes not even 2 weeks
@@charocflores depends on the variety - some of mine bloom more frequently than others, and others need longer rest periods between blooming cycles. As long as the plant looks healthy, that works!
Good to see you!
My Kentucky blueberry is rarely out of bloom. I notice yours too.
I meant gooseberry
When are you having a show in Los Angeles? I will love to go That is beautiful I have few but not like yours please have a show

Where do you get yours at?
Just made a video about this, check it out: th-cam.com/video/gP4Zr5MXmRI/w-d-xo.htmlsi=tM6UEnc34ZSBDuLf
Thanks!
Appreciate your support!🌸
These are some of the fullest heads of blooms yet... did you change something? Haha..
I always wanted to ask : Do violets have to be in complete darkness for at least 8 hrs. Meaning the artificial lights are off. But what about if some violets are close to a window. Does it matter if the ceiling lights are on? While people are still in the room? Does it affects somehow the violets? Or they need complete darkness at least the 8 hrs.
Yes, they need 14-16 hours of light and 8-10 hours of darkness daily to flower. Here is a good read: extension.psu.edu/why-isnt-my-african-violet-flowering#:~:text=They%20also%20need%20eight%20hours,than%2016%20hours%20a%20day.
@@grayturtleviolets thank you soooo much!
@@grayturtleviolets I used to have my violets for up to 15 hrs. with the artificial light on. Many got stunted and with a tight crown, leaves became rubber like. Now I have them with maximum 10 hrs. with light. wherever room they are , I turned the ceiling lights off also. I try to give them complete darkness and since then , all my violets are covered with blooms non stop! no more tightness. It helped to watch your videos on how close lights should be and different types of violets react different as well.
@@charocflores Glad it’s been helpful, appreciate your feedback! Happy growing!
Oh my! Everyone of your violets are blooming their little hearts out. All their leaves are perfect. How do you do it?
Thank you! Here is how I grow my miniatures: th-cam.com/video/DdzCs3rr63c/w-d-xo.htmlsi=zJi9RzdMXJi175cR
@@grayturtleviolets Thank you...I know this will be helpful.
Hola soy Mario Contreras soy fanático de las violetas africanas y quisiera tener muchas violetas africanas variedadas ❤🎉
Wow. So many beauties. Abundant flowers. Love every one. 💚
How can i buy?
I was wondering if you sell the Russian beauties. I have some that have huge 10” leaf spreads, can I up pot to a 10” pot??
Usually it’s recommended to follow 1:3 ratio, using pot 3 time less the diameter of the crown, but I sometimes pot them up in the size half of the crown. Happy growing!
