My African Violets

My African Violet has blossomed, can u see the flower bud! YEAH, after so many months, from 1 single leave to this pot full of leaves.

I have 3 of such pots full of leaves, 1 has blossomed, 1 i have split them because of over-crowding, 1 still remain as it is.

From 1 pot full of leaves, i spilt them into 4 more pots, looks better....heehee. otherwise the flower buds may have hard time finding its way up...

These are from my boss's room. Hers has been re-potted into such big pot, looks like "pai cai" to me....hahahahah...

African Violet

These are plants in my office since April in year, I think i have bought at least 4 pots of African Violets, but non of them still alive, but when they were dying, we cutted their leaves and plant in water & water baby, and new roots came out and now, I have repotted one of the plant into soil again. Hopefully, they can live this time.

This above is tie shu 铁树, which I cut off the "new shoot" from its mother plant and plant in water baby, the new root also came out, this way, it will take longer time to grow into tall plant, heehee....

These are some of the newly grown leaves from a African Violet leave, still in water with water baby.

This one i have repotted into soil just last week. Hope it will grow well, if not i will be very sad.

African Violet

These my new plant, African Violet, i bought 2 pot of the same colour, there was another one more to the red, but it doesnt look good, so these 2 lah. Quite pretty flowers....good for indoor, but i understand they quite difficult to look after....recently have been more into green.... nice?

Clean the air

This above is called corn palm, also known as iron plant (铁树). Bought 1 pot of it from Shop & Save. 1 pot consist of 3 plants, so i removed them from the pot and plant them in the glass bottle with water baby in it. But the tallest, i plant it back into the pot because it is too tall and there are some worms crawling. And i bring one of it to office. I read about it from Sat's straits Times, that this iron plant, Dumbcane, Boston fern and Money plant are good green air-purifiers and they are easy to grow and do well in an indoor environment. "They take in toxins and break them down with the help of microbes in the compost." Just a general rule, indoor plants require less water than those grown outdoors. The soil should feel damp, not soggy.
