Violet Babies
Ten propagated African violet babies, moved into Masrac wicking pots:
There is actually more than one baby growing in each of these, so some time when they have grown larger I will have to separate them.

On Gardening Australia this week someone suggested that cutting the veins of leaves helps to persuade them to reproduce. They were talking about begonias, not African violets, but I thought maybe it was worth a try for these two leaves which haven't done anything in four and a half months.

Your violet babies are coming along so well...hugs, Julierose
They are growing well.
I have two in identical pots in same spot and one flourishes and the other looks wilted, go figure! I pulled all the flowers and most of the external leaves off (are some new leaves in centre) to see if that resurrected it or kills it! So I am most interested in your experiment outcome.
I love African violets. I had many when I lived in the US. Yours look great. You must have a green thumb.
So happy to see this new generation of plants doing so well. It is not by accident.
