Some hints on African Violet Culture 
A few Don'ts 
Don't be without African Violets. 
Don't water your plants too often; allow the 
soil to dry out at times. 
Don't allow mature leaves to turn jelly-like 
and die; use them as cuttings. 
Don't pour cold water inte the crown: use warm 
water and drain excess. 
Don't forget - water on the leaves with sun 
shining on them - brown spots. 
Don't neglect fertilizing them with POKON - 
it really makes them bloom. 
Don't use a pencil for labeling; ordinary 
ink on adhesive tape is better. 
Don't water your plants before dividing; stems 
will be limp, won't snap. 
Don't divide them when they're blooming; you! 1] 
shake the flowers off. 
Don't keep a diseased plant: it may ruin your 
entire collection. 
Don't let me frighten you; they're easy to 
grow!
