These seeds produce plants in a mix of flower colours, ideal for bright windowsills, tabletops, shelves and small decorative pots. Once mature, African violets can flower repeatedly through the year with the right light and care.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003ePlease Read Before Buying\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eGrowing African violets from seed is a slow, rewarding project rather than a quick one. The seeds are dust-fine and need warmth, humidity and patience: seedlings usually appear in 2–4 weeks, and plants typically take around 6–9 months to flower. Plants grown from seed can vary in size, leaf shape and flower colour, so not every seedling will stay miniature. African violets are mainly indoor plants and can only be grown outdoors in warm, frost-free, shaded and humid spots.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eAt a Glance\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePlant type:\u003c\/strong\u003e Flowering houseplant\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLife cycle:\u003c\/strong\u003e Perennial\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlower colour:\u003c\/strong\u003e Mixed colours\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBloom time:\u003c\/strong\u003e Repeatedly through the year once mature\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGrowth habit:\u003c\/strong\u003e Compact rosette\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHeight:\u003c\/strong\u003e About 4–6 in (10–15 cm)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLight:\u003c\/strong\u003e Bright, indirect light; no direct sun\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWater:\u003c\/strong\u003e Moderate; keep soil lightly moist\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTemperature:\u003c\/strong\u003e 65–80°F (18–27°C)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOutdoors:\u003c\/strong\u003e Only in USDA zones 10–12, in shade\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTime to flower:\u003c\/strong\u003e About 6–9 months from seed\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSeeds per packet:\u003c\/strong\u003e 100\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eHow to Sow\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFill a shallow tray or small pot with a light, airy seed-starting or African violet mix and moisten it well. Sprinkle the tiny seeds evenly over the surface and do not cover them, as they need light to germinate. Cover the container with a clear lid or plastic wrap to keep humidity high, and place it in bright, indirect light at around 70–75°F (21–24°C). Mist gently to keep the surface moist. Seedlings usually appear in 2–4 weeks. Transplant them into small individual pots once they have several leaves and are large enough to handle.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eHow to Grow\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eGrow in bright, indirect light, such as an east-facing window, and protect from direct sun, which can scorch the leaves. Water with room-temperature water, ideally from the base, keeping the soil lightly moist and avoiding water on the leaves. Feed lightly every 2–4 weeks with an African violet fertiliser during active growth. Use small pots with good drainage, maintain moderate humidity, and remove faded flowers to encourage new blooms.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"OrganicSeedsHub","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45571038150839,"sku":"PVN-DEC27-04","price":16.59,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0710\/3335\/6471\/files\/render_874b01fc-b130-4413-af3c-07226de8fb53.jpg?v=1770633978","url":"https:\/\/organicseedshub.com\/products\/mini-african-violet-seeds-saintpaulia-compact-flowering-houseplant-seeds","provider":"OrganicSeedsHub","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
