Plant Height:  3 inches

Flower Height:  4 inches

Spread:  5 inches

Sunlight:  partial shade 

Hardiness Zone:  10b

Description:

White flowers with yellow centers and fuchsia petal tips rise above dark green leaves on this miniature variety; an excellent tabletop accent; easy to care for

Features & Attributes

Rob's Delicious African Violet features dainty clusters of white round flowers with buttery yellow eyes and fuchsia tips held atop the stems from late winter to late fall. Its tomentose round leaves emerge light green, turning dark green in color throughout the year. The red stems can be quite attractive and add to the plant's interest.

This is an herbaceous evergreen houseplant with a more or less rounded form. This plant may benefit from an occasional pruning to look its best.

Planting & Growing

When grown indoors, Rob's Delicious African Violet can be expected to grow to be only 3 inches tall at maturity extending to 4 inches tall with the flowers, with a spread of 5 inches. It grows at a slow rate, and under ideal conditions can be expected to live for approximately 10 years. This houseplant should be situated in a location that that gets indirect sunlight at most, although it will usually require a more brightly-lit environment than what artificial indoor lighting alone can provide. It prefers to grow in average to moist soil. The surface of the soil shouldn't be allowed to dry out completely, and so you should expect to water this plant once and possibly even twice each week. Be aware that your particular watering schedule may vary depending on its location in the room, the pot size, plant size and other conditions; if in doubt, ask one of our experts in the store for advice. It is not particular as to soil pH, but grows best in rich soil. Contact the store for specific recommendations on pre-mixed potting soil for this plant.

There are many factors that will affect the ultimate height, spread and overall performance of a plant when grown indoors; among them, the size of the pot it's growing in, the amount of light it receives, watering frequency, the pruning regimen and repotting schedule. Use the information described here as a guideline only; individual performance can and will vary. Please contact the store to speak with one of our experts if you are interested in further details concerning recommendations on pot size, watering, pruning, repotting, etc.
