Violet Grina is a plant that, in principle, does not differ in any bright appearance or decorative characteristics. But there is something in it that attracts gardeners - for example, velvety flowers, dark contrasting foliage, flowering, which is abundant. It is worth immediately emphasizing that this variety has nothing to do with violets, to which we are accustomed in a more general form and generally accepted understanding. But since the name for planting is still quite familiar, in this article we will call this plant a violet, it just has its own characteristics and characteristics, which must be paid close attention to.
This flower appeared thanks to the selection work of T. Dadoyan, who really wanted to get an unusual, attractive and, at the same time, unpretentious flower that could take root in any districts and regions. Violets Grina Dadoyan are semi-double, they are painted in a white shade, and there is also an attractive greenish ruffle on the flowers, which adds decorativeness to the plant. At the same time, the flowers are not as large as we might like, but they can densely cover all the foliage, and with it, in some contrast, the planting looks incredibly attractive and fresh. During the active flowering period of the violets of the Green variety, they seem to cover the entire pot with their inflorescences, and the fringe also looks interesting and solemn. The green frame may fade a little over time, and then disappear altogether, but the whole plant still looks unusual and fresh.
The flowering of this variety is quite long, while the old flowers do not deteriorate at all and do not spoil the overall picture of the plant and the general impressions of planting with their appearance. But the variety also has a drawback, which is that the variety grows for a very long time, and the buds of the plant do not open immediately. The variety takes quite a long time to open up, demonstrate its growth and development, gain energy and be saturated with nutrients and components, in order to finally reveal all its decorative features and characteristics. So you should definitely be patient, and then the violet grill will definitely not disappoint any grower.
Green violets respond well to very bright lighting, but from spring to autumn it is best to provide the plant with diffused, filtered light so that it feels as comfortable as possible. In winter, the flowers enter a dormant stage, and this can also happen if the plant does not receive enough light. In winter, it is recommended to install artificial lighting so that the plant can feel itself in the most comfortable conditions. Ideally, windowsills with an east or north orientation are suitable for the plant, and therefore it is best to initially put the pots on them. But in general, if these are western and southern windowsills, then in the summer the plant will need shading, since direct sunlight does not always have the best effect on the state of the plantings.
The most important factor for the continued flowering of Grinya Dadoyan violets is natural light. The pot must be neatly placed on a windowsill that receives sufficient diffused sunlight.The best option in this case is the east window, because there the Green's violet will meet the dawn, the morning sun, which is not yet so bright or evil. Such a curtain will perfectly adapt plants, and the curtain is also best installed if the violets are located on the sills of windows with a south and west orientation. In order for the bush to develop symmetrically, it is necessary to turn the bushes weekly. The foliage stretches towards the sun, and if the bushes are not turned over, this will lead to the fact that on one side the leaves will be brighter and longer, and on the other side the bush will be completely nondescript. First of all, this affects precisely the decorative indicators of planting.
As for the temperature regime, the air temperature in the room should be at least fifteen degrees. Violets can generally be kept in a dormant mode throughout the winter period, they tolerate such conditions perfectly, and this does not affect them and their development and growth in any way. In order to provide the plant with a state of dormancy, it is necessary to place a container with a bush in a room where the air temperature is much lower than the declared threshold. The plant should be there for several weeks.
As for the humidity of the air, it should also be at a sufficiently high level. In this case, one should not allow moisture to be sprayed on the leaves or buds, the Green violets do not tolerate this at all. Instead, you can use a different measure. For example, place a pot with a plant on a saucer, which should be filled with wet pebbles or expanded clay. This very important requirement must also be supported in the event that the window sill on which the landing is located is directly above the battery. This is important for the reason that it will be much easier for moisture to evaporate, which means that the leaves and buds will be fed with moisture, which will begin to spread through the air. When the peduncles wither, then they must be removed in time, as well as the leaves, which are located at the very base, must be removed. This is important not only in order to maintain the attractive appearance of the plant, but also in order to prevent fungal diseases. If the bush is too thickened, then a favorable environment is formed inside it just for the development of bacteria and fungi, and in no case should this be allowed.
Of course, it is important to take care of Grinya Dadoyan's violet so that it feels comfortable and that it receives the maximum of useful and nutritious substances. Only the care will depend on how the planting will grow and develop, as well as how the plant will look, whether it will be decorative and attractive enough.
Violet Green: care and cultivation

Plant care is very important. Let's start with how to properly water a violet so that it gets an excellent amount of moisture and does not need it. Violets react perfectly if you put containers with a plant in a saucer, which is pre-filled with a small amount of warm settled water. In general, the water should be very soft, you can use melt or rain water, melted snow or well water for the same purposes, which are best brought to room temperature, otherwise the violet may experience a shock.
Violet Grina Dadoyan must be saturated with moisture, moisture must not be allowed to accumulate in the soil or in the root system, otherwise it will lead to the plant simply decaying and dying. The violet is generally susceptible to root rot, so it is recommended to follow this process especially carefully so as not to lose such a valuable and very significant plant.
Watering can be done in different ways - from above, from below, using wicks, and also installing special irrigation systems. But about once a month, it is imperative to moisten the soil from above, because in this way you can also wash off all the salts that have accumulated in the soil after fertilization. This is especially due to the fact that some violets grow directly in raw clay containers. If suddenly water gets on the leaves, then it is necessary to immediately remove the water droplets with a dry towel, as this can lead to the appearance of spotting on the leaves, which will just symbolize that the plant does not feel so comfortable, and needs special care and approach from the gardener.
If the gardener waters the violets from above, then it is always worth checking that moisture does not get into the sockets, otherwise it will lead to inevitable diseases and deviations from the norm. The soil itself should be fairly dry before watering again, because only then will the watering order and its regularity be respected. The biggest mistake gardeners make is that the soil is constantly, albeit slightly, but still moist. It is imperative to install a good drainage system in the pot so that all excess moisture leaves the soil, otherwise this will lead to the fact that the root system of the plant will begin to rot very actively, and this can play a very cruel joke. Such a mistake is usually made only by those gardeners who do not yet have sufficient experience in this matter, and therefore they may not understand the principles and rules of watering and applying moisture to the soil.
It is necessary to feed violets every 10-14 days, and use weak concentrated liquid fertilizers for this. If a very large amount of foliage is formed, then in this case it is necessary to reduce the amount of nitrogen, which is introduced as one of the components of the feeding. Each time feeding is best combined with watering, the feeding solution should be made about four times weaker than the concentration indicated on the package, since only in this way can a normal and full-fledged result be achieved, not overfeeding the plant.
If fertilizers are not applied at all, then this can lead to the fact that the green violet will refuse to form buds and, accordingly, flowering will not occur. It is recommended to take such feed formulations in which there is a very low level of urea. This is due to the fact that due to urea, the roots can simply burn in the literal sense of the word, so it is better to be very careful about planting, to the concentration of fertilizers and try to make sure that the plant does not experience stress or inconvenience, especially the root planting system.
Violet Green has several significant benefits. One of them is that it reproduces very easily. It is recommended to use leaves from the third row in the outlet as planting materials. They are distinguished by their strength and the fact that they can take root in a new place much faster and more painlessly. Agree, this is a really significant advantage in this case. A nutrient medium for violets can be water, to which a small amount of the drug is added to activate plant growth.But not always, thanks to this alone, it is possible to achieve the set goal and obtain the desired result, since the root system is initially formed rather weak. It is best to use refined vermiculite, which is just right for this purpose, as it can hold in moisture and prevent the root system from rotting. In principle, many other varieties and varieties of violets can take root in vermiculite, so the gardener should pay close attention to this component.
Vermiculite is sent to a container for planting, a leaf with a torn stalk is inserted into it, after that it is poured with water, and it is best to cover the planting with a film on top to create an impromptu greenhouse. The stalk is best placed on the sunny side, but it will be better if the plant is not exposed to direct sunlight, which can cause burns. The air temperature at this time should be between twenty and twenty-five degrees - ideal temperature indicators that are excellent for the growth and development of violets. After about a month and a half after that, you will notice small leaves that will begin to form at the very base of the stem. After that, the violet is planted in the ground, and already in it the planting material will finally take root. Also, for this, it will be possible to add a little dressing and fertilizers to the soil. After about six months, the plant will finally enter the flowering stage, and then you can already enjoy the flowering of this plant to the fullest.

When the Green's violet is transplanted, the new soil must be disinfected and sterilized in advance. To do this, it is either calcined or frozen. A new container for planting should be about a few centimeters larger in diameter, but do not take a very wide container or pot. If you do this, and plant a plant in a wide pot, then this can lead to the fact that the plant will mainly develop its root system, but it will no longer have enough strength to develop flowers.
Ideally, the soil for planting violets should contain sphagnum peat and vermiculite, as well as perlite - and all this is mixed in equal proportions. You can transplant a violet every one and a half to two years, and you can also plan for a time when the gardener has a feeling that the bush has become very cramped in its old container, and the grill violet needs a new container and pot. It is best to schedule a transplant in the spring, as this is considered the best time of the year. It is recommended to select either clay or plastic containers for planting violets, but if it is a clay pot, then the soil may suffer from the accumulation of salts from watering, and therefore it will need to be regularly processed or changed altogether, otherwise the violet will gradually start to get sick, it will appear negative manifestations on the part of the plant itself, it will begin to be capricious. During transplantation with a flower, one should behave very carefully - it is removed from the old soil, it also moves neatly into a new container with new soil. The root system can be slightly trimmed, treated with an activated carbon-based solution. Activated carbon serves as an excellent disinfectant that prevents the development of various fungi and diseases. After the violet is planted, you should not tamp the soil around it, but it is best to immediately water the plant and wait for the excess moisture to come out by itself. This is the agricultural technique that must be followed in relation to the plant, so that it feels safe and radiates only health.
Possible problems
Sometimes gardeners who grow Green Violets can face some difficulties and problems. These problems are usually as follows:
- the absence of flowers and flowering in general during the entire time. In this case, the gardener should carefully check the quality of the fertilizers and fertilizers applied, as well as whether the planting gets enough sunlight, or because of shading, the plant does not have the strength for normal development. In the case of low temperatures, flowering may also be absent, but all these problems can be corrected by the gardener himself if the rules of agricultural technology are followed and the caring measures are restored.
- the appearance of putrefactive formations. In no case should water be allowed to fall on the leaves or stems, and it is also impossible for water to accumulate in the sockets. If rot forms, then the gardener should adjust the watering, reduce the amount of moisture introduced, and also treat the plant with fungicidal preparations so that it recovers faster and so that pathogenic bacteria die as soon as possible. If internal, root rot is formed, then the soil can be replaced with fresh one. Also, the gardener must carefully examine the root system of the violet Green, remove all roots that have been affected by the disease, and they are also treated with activated carbon, because, as we said, activated carbon has disinfecting properties and can also fight bacteria that damage plants
- powdery mildew - during examination, it is necessary to remove all diseased parts of the Green violet variety, as well as adjust the air circulation and, in general, the level of humidity in the room. Usually due to the fact that the leaves are very thick, spores and bacteria begin to develop inside the bush
- the appearance of insects - here you can deal with them manually. Take a cotton swab, which is moistened in alcohol or soapy water, and wipe the flower. But if the infection has crossed all the boundaries, then it is better to use insecticidal solutions and special preparations
- bacterial infection - these diseases cannot be treated, and if suddenly the Green's violet has become infected with bacterial microorganisms, then it would be better to dispose of the bush altogether before the bacteria spread to still healthy plantings. But in general, if the gardener observes all the rules of agricultural technology, if he takes care of the plantings as they themselves require, then only in this case it will turn out not only a healthy, but also an incredibly attractive plant that will delight the gardener at different times of the year. Again, a lot depends on the desire and vigilance of the grower and on what result he wants to achieve in caring for the plantings.
