Do you have success with violet pots?

Yes, I grow many of African violets in violet pots. The trick is to have the pot no larger than 4 inches for a large violet, or half as wide as the leaf span is.





Another thing is to prime the pot before you plant in it. Fill the outer pot with water, put in the inner pot, and either put a little water in the bottom or leave it empty. Let it sit for a day, so that the water can work its way all through the pot, this makes it easier for the plant to get the water it needs. Also try never to let the pot go dry, since it slows things down for absportion.

Do you have success with violet pots?
Yes, sure. When it gets too hot though they do wilt a little.
