| Abstract | Saintpaulia is one of the most popular flowering houseplants that need a proper growing medium for optimal vegetative and reproductive growth. It has been proved that the application of supplementary fertilizers, appropriate growing medium, and artificial light could provide more favorable growth and flowering conditions for most plants. For this purpose, a separate experiment was performed to investigate the factors affecting the growth and flowering in this plant. The first experiment investigates three growing media (peat, cocopeat: perlite and peat moss: perlite). All experiments were performed as a factorial experiment in a completely randomized factorial design with five replications. Most of the measured traits were significantly affected by the treatments of these three experiments. The use of peat moss: perlite growing medium with equal ratio along with the application of phosphate fertilizer provided the best yield. |
