But with proper care it can bloom almost all year round. But what happens is that the grower is still waiting and waiting, but the flowers did not appear.

The main reasons for the lack of flowering

7 Experts identify the main reasons for which Saintpaulia can not bloom when grown under ambient conditions:

1. pochvosmes

If the selected pot will be much larger than is necessary, then Bush will begin to actively build up the roots and foliage, and flowering it simply does not remain forces.

That is why for planting should be chosen very small capacity, which in size is only slightly greater than the volume of the root system of the bush.

5. Fertilizer
