New plant haul

2 standard African violets (one a scraggly guy in need of a repot once he's out of rehab), 2 primulina bebes (paper cups inside a teeny terracotta pot so hopefully they stop falling over), and 2 AV leaves that WILL propagate and give me flowers, dammit.

African Violets can propagate from just a leaf? Kind of like a succulent? Cool.

Propagating by leaf is one of the most popular methods in my experience because it’s so easy and you can do it year-round. I’ve started rooting leaves in both water and soil. Sometimes it takes a couple months for a baby plant to emerge from a potted prop so patience is key!
