I used two plastic containers that you buy strawberries in. I cut the tops off and hold them together with rubber bands and paper clips. The ventilation slots permit watering from the bottom. violets by tsebmj, on Flickr

Cool.
I don't have any violets, but I could see doing that to root pieces of my Christmas catcus and other things. Nice cheap propagation chamber idea!

I used something like this for my tomato and basil cuttings. I'm using salvaged large plastic and glass jars to root rose, mulberry and wild plum cuttings. It's great to find use for something that would otherwise make a home in a landfill.
