Mutant violet?
(lemmy.world)
I was given a small pot with a single sad leaf to try and rescue. I was told it was an African violet. It was repotted and I gave it some fertilizer and it started producing this giant leggy looking leaves. Is this normal? A mutant? It doesn’t look like any violet I’ve seen.
Thanks!
Edit: thank you for all the feedback! It does indeed look like a cyclamen. I have moved it closer to the window, hopefully it will fill in nicely.
Whatever it is, it doesn't look like it's getting enough light. I'd guess that's why it's growing so leggy.
That's just how cyclamen grow- they're floppy plants. They like indirect light, so the lighting set up seems fine.
