Many experienced flower growers are familiar with the name of Konstantin Morev, who became the author of the most incredible and beloved by all Saintpaulias - indoor violets. This breeder has been working on breeding violets, on crossing and obtaining new attractive varieties for more than 25 years, and in his track record there are more than one hundred varieties and varieties of violets that can satisfy the tastes and needs of even the most demanding growers. These violets are not inferior in their beauty and attractiveness to varieties of foreign violets and have long become a real hallmark of domestic indoor floriculture. Many experienced flower growers know the varieties that were bred by Morev. In particular, they managed to fall in love with such an interesting and wonderful sample, which is called the violet CM Stassia. This violet was bred by a breeder, but Morev himself calls it a seedling rather than a full-fledged bush for its diminutiveness, and at the same time quite abundant and bright flowering. The flowers at the planting grow semi-double, lush, their shape is incredibly aesthetically attractive, and the transitions in the tint format are the most diverse. The petals of the Stassia violet can be painted in a bright red hue, in smoky burgundy colors, there can be white colors, as well as a slight pinkish blush on the petals, which, as it were, demonstrates the embarrassment of this variety for its own beauty and aesthetics.
Violet Stassiya Moreva has one distinctive feature, namely, on the wavy border you can notice a greenish or white color, which, as it were, highlights the flower, making it flirty, and at the same time quite bold. The edges of the petals from this look even more solemn and festive, and indeed the violets of the CM Stassia variety stand out favorably against the background of many other flower indoor plantings. One plant can have completely different colors, and from here there is a feeling that it is not one, but several different varieties at once. The color has a gentle gradient transition that boggles the imagination and can satisfy the needs of absolutely anyone, even the most capricious florist, who strives to get decorative and attractive accents on their own windowsills or indoors. The color has transitions from pale tones to very bright, strokes also look quite attractive and interesting in contrast, and this looks very interesting and funny in the overall picture.
From the cutting of the violet Stassia Morev, you can get a lot of planting materials - children, neat and compact rosettes are also formed, flower stalks appear that bloom wonderfully. By the way, I would like to emphasize separately that the flowering of this variety is long, and the grower will have much more time to enjoy the wonderful external characteristics of this planting. For a long time, the flowers retain a very fresh appearance, they do not crumble, do not curl or wrinkle for a very long time. Therefore, when fresh buds are just blooming, the florist can be pleasantly surprised by all the abundance of flowering and colors, and the variety of violets CM Stassia Moreva can really pleasantly surprise you with just such qualities. The flower itself is very attractive, some even call it quirky, as it gives a variety of shades and colors.Even if the mother flowers are colored in the same range, then it is necessary one way or another to expect that the color of the resulting flowers will be much more interesting and attractive. For example, if previously the plant bloomed with a burgundy shade, then its stalk can bloom in completely various shades, and it is not necessary that burgundy will remain among these shades.
Of course, the external characteristics of the plant entirely depend on how the florist himself takes care of the plantings. It is very important that the grower observes all agrotechnical rules, takes care of the plant, taking into account its properties and characteristics. Only in this case will the Stassia violet be healthy, strong and very decorative. To do this, it is required to take into account some rules and nuances, so that in the future planting would feel as comfortable as possible. As a rule, only in comfortable conditions will violets be able to open completely, they will also be able to fully demonstrate their features, very important bright characteristics and properties. So we will devote the next part of this article to how to properly care for the Stassia violets, how to propagate it indoors, in order to preserve the attractive properties and characteristics of the mother shrubs.

Violet CM Stassia reproduces in the same way as other violets from the corresponding plant group. This is an unpretentious crop that usually does not respond in the best way to abundant soil moisture. Violets should be watered especially carefully, since moisture should not be allowed to enter the leaves, flowers and into the outlet - this will immediately cause a negative reaction from the plant, and the likelihood that the violet will soon simply die will increase. Also, due to moisture ingress on the upper part of the plant, brown spots may begin to develop, which not only spoil the external characteristics of the plant, but can also reduce the immunity and stress resistance of the violet. Because of this, planting the SM Violet variety Stassiya Moreva will gradually pick up various fungal and infectious diseases. It is best to water as follows: pour water into a tray, and place a container with the violet itself in it.
Like any plants, the violet Stassia Moreva is very fond of illuminated places, but at the same time the light should be diffused, there should be shading from bright sunlight. Their ingress can lead to the fact that burns begin to form on the leaf and stem parts and, as a result, not only the appearance of the plant will be spoiled, but the flower itself will begin to feel uncomfortable, diseases and infections may develop. The flower does not tolerate too hot and dry weather, and sometimes it is necessary to remove the peduncles from the outlet, because this is the only way to save the plant from negative manifestations.
If the pedicels are periodically cut off, then the SM Stassia violet will bloom on average twice a year, and the second flowering will come very quickly, not so much time will pass between it and the first flowering. This fact may surprise some growers, but usually it is a pleasant surprise, because the growers do not have time to recover from the beautiful first bloom of violets. The first flowers usually bloom pale, and then very bright colors appear on the plant in the second bloom, the petals have rich colors, and in contrast it may look as if not one variety was blooming, but two completely different ones. Sometimes it happens the other way around - the first bloom strikes with the brightness of the palette and colors, but already the second bloom becomes much paler, it may not look so attractive, but at the same time the flowers remain quite large, delicate, they can really decorate the plant and the place where the container is located with landing.It is worth saying that it is difficult to predict what the first bloom will be, and what the second will turn out to be, because the violet CM Stassia Moreva is a very unpredictable indoor violet.
If the florist has shown a desire to breed these plantings on his own, then he should know about one thing: violets can be rooted throughout the year. A leaf or a baby that is purchased for the reproduction of violets must be cut off a little at the base of the leg, it is better to cut it at an angle of forty-five degrees, no less. Next, the planting material is placed in a glass cup, which is pre-filled with warm settled water, the leg should be immersed in a glass and in water by about one centimeter.
Also, for rooting, planting materials can be planted in a greenhouse or in a small, pre-prepared container. Soil is filled into the container, and a plastic cling film is covered on top of the planting to create a kind of greenhouse with its own greenhouse effect. For the Stassia violet, for propagation of this particular variety, it is recommended to put the cutting directly into the water. If the tip of the leg starts to rot a little, then it can be cut off very carefully, and then put back into the water. By the way, the water can also be changed, because due to rotting in the moisture, some microorganisms and bacteria could begin to multiply. After three months, the already rooted plant can be planted in a container with a permanent substrate, and a full-fledged adult individual will continue to form there.
It is very important for a flower grower to closely monitor the violet SM Stasia, to also observe how the violets react to certain external stimuli, how they feel on the illuminated part or in partial shade. It is also worth paying attention to what the violet leaves can begin to fade, flowers fall, which is why the inflorescences stretch in length, the trunk curls. These observations are recorded by a florist just in order to select the most necessary program for caring for the plant in the future, choose a suitable place for growing it, draw up a schedule of watering and feeding. Of course, it will depend only on the vigilance of the grower himself how the plant will feel, whether it will bloom so excellently and decoratively, and whether it will take root with a well-equipped microclimate, or the violets need some changes in this matter.
