Question
I have an african violet that has been blooming now for about 6 - 8 months and seems to be very healthy.  The odd think about the plant is its leaves (actually the stems).  All of its leaf stems are about 6 inches long.  It looks like a Daddy long legs spider.  Should I be doing something different with it or is it perhaps a variety that I am unfamiliar with.  I feed it liquid violet fertilizer every 2 weeks.

Answer
Janine,
I love your description - like a Daddy long leg spider!  I can barely imagine a violet such as this one.  I wonder if you could email me a photo of it?  I will give my address to you:  [email protected].  The website coordinators discourage us from doing so, but occasionally I have to see photos in order to help folks.

I will look forward to your reply.
