African violet leaf cutting method

Diagram

The first step is to choose suitable leaves, which must be healthy, free of pests and diseases, and growing relatively strong. Use a sharp knife to cut it off.

The second step is to find a plastic bottle, fill it with water, and then place the cut leaves of the African violet at the mouth of the plastic bottle. The petiole can be directly inserted into the water.

In this way, the cuttings of African violets are completed. Just wait for it to take root.

Maintenance

After the African violet is cut into cuttings, the plastic bottle can be placed in a place where it can be exposed to bright scattered light for maintenance, and be sure to change the water, generally every 4 days. Generally, it takes about two weeks for roots to form.

After the leaves of the African violet begin to take root, you need to lower the water level. Generally, you can lower the water level to below the petiole, leaving only the roots in the water.

After a period of care like this, small buds will grow from the leaves of the African violet.

Transplantation can be performed at the appropriate time.
