African violets need constant fertilizing each time you water them. Good fertilizer's are Jack's, Optimara, Miracle Go. Follow the directions on the label. Usually about 1/4 to 1/2 teaspoon per gallon of water or acording to size your mixing. This will give you nice foliage and beautiful flowers. Don't forget to flush out soil with plain water once a month to rinse out old fertilizer salts. I forgot to mention; violets also like fish imulsion as a change of pace once in awhile.
