Comments (7)Andy, not sure how large that particular plant gets. Its almost 6" diameter. While I know it clumps, it has yet to do so for me. For now its growing in more of the Dyckia habit.

Comments (14)And on further review....we're both right. I have personal experience, Your Honour, with both methods, and if it please The Court, can bore you for a fortnight or longer with tales and truths about rooting Pachyphytum, Crassula, Echeveria, Kalanchoe, Thompsonella, Cotyledon, Grahamia, Tylecodon, Pachyphytum and other Crassulaceae - and that's just the Crassulaceae. I could go on with the Apocynaceae and other genera, but I shouldn't take up that much of your time. With few exceptions, if you're trying to root succulents, particularly Crassulaceae, you can take it to the bank that, given warm (20C/70F or higher is better) ambient temps and at least a modicum of sunlight (filtered is better than mostly direct), you will get leaves/cuttings/branches/stems to root faster if you give them an occasional spritz of water. I hope this provides a fuller bloviation on my comments earlier....See MoreRooting African Violets (and other things) is so easy!
Comments (7)I feed my violets everytime I water them. Just get a little bottle of violet food (liquid), and put the recommended amount of drops into a gallon of distilled water. I have city water, so I don't put it on my plants. If you have a well, just draw up a gallon of it and add the fertilizer. Mine are blooming like crazy right now. Good Luck!
