History of the emergence of new varieties
Uzambara violets have been grown indoors for many years, so there are a huge number of different varieties.
Most varieties are a cross between Saintpaulia violet and its interspecific hybrids with some other varieties
There are many nurseries and private breeders all over the world who breed rare domestic violets. Modern varieties do not convey varietal characteristics very well during propagation. Similar types of earlier breeding do this better, for example, the results of selection by B. M. Makuni. Sometimes in flower shops you can see completely different flowers sold under the same name and description.
The name of the variety is always preceded by a prefix. It indicates which nursery or private breeder managed to develop new hybrids. For example, RM - Natalya Skornyakova, ND - Natalya Danilova-Suvorova, 23 - Yana Zubo, etc.
For crossing, two adult specimens are required during the flowering period. Pollen is ready for pollination 5 days after the bud opens. It is carefully transferred to the pestle. If pollination is successful, a seed box is formed in place of the wilted corolla. It matures within six months. Then the peduncle is cut off, the box is opened and the seed is dried for another 3 weeks. Seeds can be planted within six months, during which time they will not have time to lose their viability.

Proper watering and fertilizing
Watering Saintpaulia is carried out with settled water at room temperature. Before watering, the water should stand for several days so that salts do not settle on top of the earthen clod, which will interfere with the normal nutrition of the violet root system:
- The earthen ball should always be slightly moist;
- The top layer should dry out between waterings;
- Excessive watering leads to the death of violets due to the formation of root rot;
