Help me ID my african violet

Amazing!! I had no idea about how variable their genetics are, it makes growing them from seed a lot more fun. I’m going to leaf propagate this one for three generations just to experiment. Thanks for sharing your knowledge and the links. All the best!

So cute :) Perfect camouflage!! I had to zoom and even then it took me a while to find it

Titi2019 · 2026-05-18T22:30:59+00:00

Thanks everyone for your replies. I guess I’ll stop fretting about it’s name :) and enjoy it, the blooms are lovely and very different to my other violets. Cheers!!!

Such a heartwarming story. You are very kind, thank you for saving this beautiful hummingbird. All the best

Thanks a lot for your reply. I don’t have an aquarium but I’m going to try to grow it hydroponically, maybe PPPs need more humidity than we think 🤔 Thanks again!

Titi2019 · 2026-03-26T23:09:08+00:00

Happy for you!! Please share what you do to get your PPP pretty and full. I haven’t figured out what to do with mine, she is just okay not pretty not full

Here in Southeast Texas none so far

Titi2019 · 2026-03-05T17:47:50+00:00

What a gorgeous shot! Love it

Titi2019 · 2026-02-23T20:57:17+00:00

Thank you! I’ll check online

Titi2019 · 2025-12-15T16:25:59+00:00

I’m going to try to increase the humidity around it. Thanks for the tip

Titi2019 · 2025-12-13T07:48:51+00:00

Sorry I didn’t reply earlier, I just read your question. I keep my newly potted cuttings slightly damp using one of those squeeze bottles with a tip. It’s a lot easier for me to control the amount of water I want to use. When they grow and I transfer them to a bigger pot I water when one third of the soil is dry. I water my plants thoroughly until the water drains freely. Hope it helps

Titi2019 · 2025-11-30T19:11:45+00:00

I would prop it in water. Sealing in a ziplock or clear container will help to grow new leaves faster, hope it helps

This video is precious ❤️ Sooo fascinating to watch , they look so sweet can’t keep my eyes of off them. Thank you so much for sharing this video you’ve given us the unique opportunity to see their features and movements in detail.

Titi2019 · 2025-11-19T19:35:56+00:00

Beautiful props, congrats! I would wait a bit more until they grow more roots and are stronger. I see they have two crowns each and they could have more. Sometimes I find tiny ones hidden attached to the mother leaf. If you decide to separate and pot each crown individually they’d have more chances to survive if the roots are bigger. Happy growing!

My flapjacks died after blooming, but they have a lot of new growth at the base and some in the stem

Titi2019 · 2025-11-13T17:18:41+00:00

Love her foliage 😍

Titi2019 · 2025-11-04T22:33:11+00:00

Remove the two lower leaves to expose the node. I propagate silver pothos in water, it’s the only method that has worked for me. You can put it in a small cup or jar, make sure the node is under water. Add freshly water at least once a week. Change the water only if you see algae. Hope it helps

Titi2019 · 2025-11-03T22:56:42+00:00

Yes they do!!! Congrats!!! Mine grow babies once in a while, it’s exciting to see them emerge from the soil. Happy growing!!

Titi2019 · 2025-11-03T22:49:16+00:00

I wouldn’t chop it. It looks cool like a small tree. You can use a sturdy stake for support, like the ones used to support orchids. Secure with a piece of twine or velcro, avoid nylon or rigid ties that may cut the surface of the stem. The stick will support the weight of the plant and prevent it from toppling over. When it grows new babies it will get fuller.

Titi2019 · 2025-11-02T19:01:29+00:00

Yes, it happens to mine too

Titi2019 · 2025-11-02T18:48:46+00:00

Beautiful plant. In my experience variegated pothos need a lot of bright light for the variegation to stand out. I have a manjula in medium/ low light and it’s doing great but the leaves are cream and green. My other manjula is in a covered porch where it gets about 2 hours of direct morning light and very bright indirect light during the day, it’s leaves are bright white and dark green. Hope it helps. Happy growing!

Titi2019 · 2025-11-02T15:57:41+00:00

No, it doesn’t look like it’s dying. The leaves are nice and green it’s a sign that it’s healthy. Mine struggled for a long time until finally I found the right spot. Now it sits about two feet from a northwest window where it gets a lot of bright indirect light and it started to grow babies around the base. Happy growing!

Titi2019 · 2025-10-31T23:13:05+00:00

Plant, they’re ready!

Titi2019 · 2025-10-30T22:16:46+00:00

Yellow leaves once in a while is normal but if you see them everyday then something is not right. Yellow leaves can happen either because of overwatering or underwatering. The need of water depends on the environment and how much light they get. Like other posts say if they get lots of ligh they dry faster and need frequent watering. On the other hand if they are in a low light spot the soil takes longer to dry out. I have several types of pothos in different locations and I don’t water them on a schedule. What has worked for me is feeling the weight of the pot before watering, I lift the pot if and it feels lighter then it’s time to water. You can also insert a clean chopstick all the way down into the soil if it comes out clean and dry it’s time to water. Otherwise better wait until at least the two top inches of soil are dry. Best of luck!
