Lighting Needs: Does best in bright indirect sunlight coming from the South/East/West\

Soil Type: Use a GOOD rich potting soil (a soil that retains water yet drains well), such as an African violet mix. If you want to mix your own take: 1 part sphagnum moss, 1 part peat and 1 part perlite. Always use a pot with a hole.

Watering: Keep the soil evenly moist during growth, at other times, allow to become almost dry between waterings. If you use rainwater, be careful as it could be acidic. Use warm water.

Feed weekly with a water soluble, lime free fertilizer during growth.

seeds/ stem cuttings in the spring through summer. It is best to propagate any type of cuttings or seeds in a mixture of moist peat and perlite. Cover the pot and plant with a plastic bag secured by a rubber band to prevent moisture from escaping. Place in indirect sunlight or under a fluorescent light. Repot in its regular mix after it has been growing for a while.


Mist frequently with warm water (lime free to avoid leaf staining) and trim back after flowering. If the plant is in a pot, place pebbles or gravel in the drainage dish to hold water and increase the humidity, make sure the pot is sitting on the gravel and not in the water. An ideal plant for a hanging basket.
