Violet question


Question

Violet
I restarted a violet and all of the new leaves are growing in yellow. They are totally healthy and growing nicely. Why yellow?? I will attach a picture.

Answer
Deb,
That is strange indeed! I can't begin to say what is causing this. Possibly a lack of some kinds of nutrients such as iron or another nutrient. Before I attempt to even guess, I'd like to know what you mean when you said you restarted the violet. Is it from a cutting?

Anyway, since this is something I've never seen, but I'm sure it is a nutrient deficiency, I want to refer you to the African Violet Society of America website. They can help anyone with anything. They take questions, too. Go to www.avsa.org
