"Some Notes on Trailing African Violets"

This is the outline of a lecture that Rob first presented at the Mid-Atlantic AVS Convention Show, in November, 1996. It's since been reprinted in numerous publications, including VioletsFun no. 12.

When potting your trailers " Potting into larger containers. Shallow is best. "
Pot into shallow containers, no matter the diameter of the pot. From a starter plant in a 2" pot, go into a 3" tub pot, then into a 5" pan pot.
