African Violet - Semi-Double & Double Pansy, Deep Red - Larger PlantGrower: Dogwood Valley Greenhouse
Price: $11.00 ( Each plant in 5" pot )Available (Exact): 1
This plant is at least 6" diameter and covered with buds and blooms.
Great large prolific semi-double to double DEEP RED blooms on a standard size plant.
Culture of African violets is specific but not difficult. The main concerns are listed here:
SOIL – Pot into a mix of equal parts of peat moss, vermiculite and perlite.
WATER – Use lukewarm water that was allowed to stand for 48 hours to evaporate the chlorine. Water at the base without splashing foliage, to avoid spotting foliage. Keep evenly moist.
LIGHT – Light affects flowering. Turn pots regularly to keep flowers from reaching for the light. Place 3 feet from a south- or west-facing window for the right winter lighting. In spring and summer, an east facing window is preferred. If this light cannot be maintained for eight hours, consider growing under fluorescent lights.
FERTILIZER – Fertilize with a higher phosphorus (middle) number, as 15-30-15. Mix at one-quarter strength and use at every watering. Reduced flowering and paler leaf color indicate too little fertilizer. Pinch spent blooms to encourage the development of more flowers.

African Violet - Single Medium Blue Star with Ruffles - Larger PlantGrower: Dogwood Valley Greenhouse
Price: $11.00 ( Each plant in 5" pot )Available (Estimated): 1
Single medium blue star with ruffles. Dark green, quilted, serrated foliage with a red back. Standard size plant.
Culture of African violets is specific but not difficult. The main concerns are listed here:
SOIL – Pot into a mix of equal parts of peat moss, vermiculite and perlite. "Violet" soils are not necessarily good for violets! Go by the ingredients, not the label! A bag of good soil should feel like a nice, fluffy, soft, pillow. Repot to freshen soil about every 6 months, but do not use larger than a 5 inch pot, and avoid deep pots.
WATER – Use lukewarm water when soil feels dry to the touch. Water at the base without splashing, to avoid spotting foliage.
LIGHT – Adequate light is important for good growth and bloom. Try to provide bright light, but not hot sun, for 8 hours each day (supplement if necessary). Turn pots regularly to keep flowers from reaching for the light. Or, place a two-tube fixture about 12-18" above plants for 12-13 hours a day. Under fluorescent light, plants may bloom continuously.
FERTILIZER – A "balanced" formula is best, such as 15-15-15. Avoid "bloom boosters." Mix at one-quarter strength and use at every watering. Reduced flowering and paler leaf color indicate too little fertilizer. Pinch spent blooms to encourage the development of more flowers.
TEMPERATURE - Generally violets prefer between 60-80 degrees, although they will tolerate somewhat out of this range. They like moderate humidity too. If you are comfortable, so are they.
GROOMING - Do not allow extra crowns, or "suckers" to form. This will spoil that natural, flat, round appearance, and prevent it from blooming to its full potential. Most violets look and bloom best with about 3 to 4 rows of leaves.

Christmas Cactus Plant - Light Pink, LargeGrower: Dogwood Valley Greenhouse
Price: $10.00 ( 5" pot )Available (Estimated): 3
**This larger size plant is loaded with buds and blooms, and gift wrapped as shown (assorted colors).**
This popular, winter-flowering, easy-care houseplant makes a great addition to nearly any indoor setting. It performs well under average home conditions with moderate care, adapting to low light conditions, but blooms more readily if exposed to brighter light, so keep in a sunny location indoors. Plants can be moved outdoors in summer, but keep them in a shady or semi-shady location. Too much direct outdoor sunlight can burn the leaves.
The plant requires frequent and thorough watering, during its active growth in spring and summer, keeping the soil slightly moist. Allow moisture levels to drop between waterings. Never let the plant sit in water, as this will lead to root and stem rot. Rather, place a tray of pebbles filled with water beneath your plant to increase humidity. Applying a mild houseplant fertilizer solution every other week is also acceptable. The plant prefers temperatures between 60 and 70 degrees F.
Flowering is related to day length and night time temperatures. Once the plant has ceased all flowering, allow it to go dormant by reducing moisture, light, and temperature. Make sure it receives 12-14 hours of darkness and temperatures around 50-55 F for six weeks in fall. Place your plant in a completely dark room or closet, or cover it each night with a dark piece of cloth (from late September to mid October for December/January bloom.)

Hanging Basket - Flame VioletGrower: Dogwood Valley Greenhouse
Price: $12.00 ( 10" hanging basket )Available (Estimated): 1
Episcias (flame violets), Gesneriads which are related to African violets, are natives of Central & South America. They are grown in temperate regions as houseplants, primarily for their attractive foliage. But with good east or artificial lighting, they will also bloom at regular intervals throughout the year. These plants like it warmer and more humid than do most houseplants. Flame violets are fast growers which send out stolons, or long stems with baby plants on the ends. By the end of the summer, your plant will have several hanging all around the basket, giving it a striking appearance, in bloom or not.

Mistletoe Cactus - MediumGrower: Dogwood Valley Greenhouse
Price: $6.50 ( 4" square pot )Available (Exact): 2
Mistletoe cactus (Rhipsalis baccifera) is an epiphytic tropical succulent native to rainforests in warm regions of Florida, Mexico and Brazil. Surprisingly, growing Rhipsalis requires shade to partial shade and plenty of moisture. This plant sends out long stems, at the end of which grow new plantlets, similar to spider plants. Its growth habit makes it ideal for a hanging basket.

Rex Begonia - Red & SilverGreenGrower: Dogwood Valley Greenhouse
Price: $7.00 ( each gallon pot )Available (Estimated): 1
The Rex begonias are some of the most stunning houseplants. Sometimes called painted-leaf begonias or fancy-leaf begonias, these plants are known for their large (up to 6"), colorful leaves.
Preferred growing conditions include bright, indirect light year-round, or fluorescent lighting. Keep evenly moist but do not mist; plant in airy, light, fast-draining soil. Fertilize biweekly at half strength of container recommendations.
These plants are great as annuals in the summer garden too, but will not tolerate freezing.
This begonia is rhizomatous, growing from a thick, fleshy rhizome that grows just below the surface of the soil. Repot in spring when the rhizome outgrows the pot. Because rhizomes have shallow roots, a shallow pot will do.
