Question
Hi Kristina
I have had so much trouble getting my african violets to flower. I have moved them to different locations in my house to get more sunlight for them. I have let them dry out, water from the bottom and fertilized them with african violet food. When I buy a new plant that is flowering I seem to keep them flowering for about a month or two and then the flowers die off. What am I doing wrong? Thanks.

Answer
First the pot should be 1/3 the size of the plant.  THey like to be root bound.

Second..fertlize with a good balanced fertlizer with NO Urea. Urea can cause death.

Third...they need bright indirect light.  Not full sun.  They require 10 to 12 hours of light a day.  If you do the first two things and still new blooms you need to supplement with artifical light.

I hope this helps you

Happy Growing
Kristina
