[flower] Yeaaaa! My violets arrived this evening [clappy] ... They are such cute little things. I am currently re-potting them into these clear 9oz solo cups. And had 2 questions. Do I remove the mother leaf?
and some of the leaves have fallen off. Could I use these the grow new ones or are they to young?

Good for you!

I personally would leave the mother leaf on, until the plants have a chance to settle in a bit. I have never tried to start new plants from baby leaves, so I don't know if that will work or not. Barleychown may be able to tell you though. make sure your solo cups have holes in the bottom for drainage.

Do not follow where the path may lead. Go instead where there is no path and leave a trail.
