National Garden Bureau named 2024 "The Year of the African Violet"

The delicate beauty of African violets has graced American homes and greenhouses for well over a century. Although new varieties, African Violet Heirloom seeds produce plants with similar colors and foliage shapes of older varieties beloved by previous generations of gardeners. The plants are large, reaching approximately 6 to 9 inches in diameter, with a similar height. They will begin to bloom 6 to 9 months after sprouting, setting pink and purple flowers several times a year, almost continuously with proper care. The cheerful violet-like blossoms perch just above a neat rosette of thick, fuzzy, dark green leaves, which keep the plant attractive even when not in bloom.

Saintpaulia ionantha varieties, commonly called African violets, these heirloom types are low- and slow-growing plants with a compact habit and free-flowering nature. African violets grow and bloom best in small pots, ideally only one-third the diameter of their leaf span, filled with light and porous potting mix having an acidic pH between 5.8 and 6.2. Place the plants within 12 inches of a bright window or under fluorescent or LED lights. If they receive adequate light, the leaves will grow in a flat horizontal wheel; inadequate light produces long leaf stems that reach upwards. To look their best, African violets require evenly moist soil—neither soggy, nor bone dry—and regular fertilization. Conditions with temperatures between 65 and 80°F with 40 to 60 percent humidity are ideal.

Grown in optimal conditions, African violets live about 20 years on average but can live up to 50 years. As a symbol of devotion, commitment, and faithfulness, African violets make a thoughtful gift, especially for Mother's Day and birthdays. They are popular with container gardeners and add a pop of color to home and office interiors.

If you are planning to start your African violet seeds indoors, be sure to check out our Bio Dome Seed Starter Kit. With the Bio Dome, you can control the temperature, light, and soil mix to ensure your seeds become strong for transplant.

Great product if you know what you’re getting.

It’s a great product if you know some details before you purchase. Specifically, for how much it cost it’s a great product. After assembly it is sturdy and will hold anything you’ll be displaying on it within reason. Speaking of assembly, it’s straight forward and intuitive if you’ve assembled other things such as a basic end table. What you should know: it does not come with instructions. It’s not hard to figure out but if you’re someone that needs instructions this product isn’t for you. That being said, if you see what you bought it’s not hard to look at the picture and assemble it. It does not come with the shelves. If you can’t buy them premise or make them then this product is not for you. Lastly, and this part is important to me, not all the pieces are straight after assembly. I used a level to mount the product on the wall and make each shelve straight. However, due to the factory produced screw grooves it is not perfectly straight. If you need it perfectly level looking this product is not for you. Refer to my pictures and you’ll see how the left bar looks crooked even though I mounted it level in every way. However, it gives it a more rustic, modern farmhouse feel that we wanted. Otherwise, a great product. I am still very happy for what we paid for. I would recommend the product and buy it again.

Great product!

This is my second time purchasing these shelves. They are easy to set up, come with all the screws, brackets, and drywall anchors (if needed). I definitely love the quality, look and versatility. Being that my ceiling is slanted I couldn’t mount them from there but easily mount them to the surface beneath the shelving. My husband loved my idea and how they turned out! Highly recommend!

No Instructions - Easy to build and study
Size: 4-tier, Style: wall mount&floor mount
I ordered 3, and my wife loves the look of them. They seem to support a decent amount of weight. I supervised my 7 year old (55 lbs) as she scaled a single shelf bracket up the wall after it was mounted, without the planks. You do need to have some amount of handiness to be looking at buying as it does not come assembled, and does not have the wood planks with it. A little learning curve I had. Keep the rods only hand snug, not tight, snug, and then as you put it up to the wall adjust as needed to get the heights and widths right to the opposing shelf. There is also only 8 pipe brackets to hold the shelves down (2 per shelf) and I did not realize this at first and assumed I had 16 (4 per shelf). I had to go back and fix.

Game changing storage!
Size: 4-tier, Style: wall mount&floor mount
I love the shelves. I got to use my own wood which was a reclaimed piece that I found and sanded and then stained. I'm so proud to see them on the shelves. It got so much clutter corralled from around the room and put in one place where it all looks good displayed together. The support pieces are very good quality and I found this to be very good value for the price. I'm very happy with this item.
