Well starfly, they look real happy.

Allison this one is awfull
it,s chocolate soldier
Hi Starfly...
They all look pretty good to me but I do concur with MsC....the Episcias need more light. I have been putting mine under domes and they LOVE it!!!
Your a good mom *smile*
TFS!

Hi Starfly...if you put that under a dome I bet he will perk right up!
Where there is life, there is hope.

Eunice your in Florida so you have heat and humidity !
The Av's WOW stunning you sure can grow them.
The Epsicas look great too.
The first picture the one way on the left sticking out of the pot. Either re-pot it so it is straight and stem all down into the soil. OR CUT the stem off leaving an inch or so. Fill small cup or pot flowing over with soil-less mix. Stick it right into the pot unstil the leaf touch the soil . water good put in non-indirect light.
ALWAYS grow in non-direct light.
The last picture Chocolate Soldier surprising enough has buds but it is in a pot 5 times too large. Re-pot it into a small pot posting into the middle low al stem covered with soil.
Mine are in a window that doses not get much light and in the afternoon gets too hot the sun the shades have to be closed. And it gets hot even with fan and A/C going I have to water them a lot. I've never fed them Soil has it in it...but just never the time. They barely get any care.
Your Blue Heave looks great ! It's a slow bushy grower softest hairy fuzzy foliage. looks great ! So does Alice.
Other than the one in large pot and the ones hanging over they look great ! You can also give them some misting a few times a day. Some people even do this with fish emolsion but not nessary another this I mever have time to do misting.
Just stick them in a window or edge of light stand, window with morning or inderect light. They will be fine !
I'll stick another Chocolate Soldier in your box :))
PS let me see if I can find my thread with step by step pictures.
I have never once had to cover them.
Eunice stick them in the front window with your Av's. Also Epscias flowers only last a day -3 three.
Here is a thread I did with pictures step by step how to progate Epsicas. It show Pink Panther in a 2.50 inch pot with a few babies and what I did with them !

Oh Girlfriend I have the biggest " SMILE " They look excellent ! Perfect you did awesome ! WOW you are good. Now just put them either in kitchen window of window with Av's.. keep them evenly moist feed them if you feel like I never do. lol Mist them but avoid them being in direct hot light. They love heat and humidity. Robert loves growing them in our shade garden under the trees ;
