Seller's choice if ordered online.
African violet, also known as Saintpaulia, is a popular houseplant appreciated for its beautiful purple flowers and ease of care. Native to East Africa, this tropical plant is cultivated for its delicate, colorful flowers, which can add a touch of sparkle to any room.
To care for an African violet, it's essential to provide the right growing conditions. This plant thrives in a warm, bright environment, but without direct sunlight. Well-drained, slightly acidic soil is recommended for healthy growth.
When it comes to watering, it's important not to let African violet soil dry out completely between waterings. It's best to water from below, placing the pot in a saucer of water for a few minutes, then drain off the excess water. Avoid watering the leaves to prevent unsightly water spots.
African violets also benefit from light feeding during their active growth period, usually in spring and summer. A dilute, balanced liquid fertilizer applied every two weeks will help encourage abundant, prolonged flowering.
By following these simple care tips, you can enjoy beautiful violet flowers all year round and maintain a healthy, vigorous African violet in your home.
