Miniature african violets



Miniature African violets are our "claim to fame". Our "Rob's" varieties are grown by serious hobbyists and collectors in every corner of the world. All "Rob's" varieties are proven, show quality plants that grow well and bloom readily, even under less than ideal conditions. They are bred to shape nicely, bloom continually, and typically will have unusually colored and larger than average size blooms.
When mature, miniatures grow to less than 6", semiminiatures to less than 8" in diameter. With proper culture, actual plant size usually is much smaller. Care for minis is the same as for the larger "standard"-size varieties--the only difference is size. Give them at least as much light (don't "hide" them underneath larger plants), and water and feed them the same. Grow in either natural or artificial light, and never use a pot larger than 2 1/2".
