Dainty Indoor Plant Infusing Colour Into Life
Dressing up the indoor spaces with natural uncut blooms, the African Violet is popular for East or West facing rooms with indirect light, rather than being in full sunlight, which burns their gorgeous deep green leaves.
Based on the ROY-G-BIV colours today is Violet (Purple), sharing variety of shades to give an idea what is available in this delightful little plant.
Taking care of the violets, avoid wetting the leaves you soil the look, soil must be kept moist, avoid over watering this will lead to rotting roots, they enjoy clay pots get them out of plastic, they must have good holes for drainage to avoid root rot.
Enjoy humidity I have heard of people placing them in a dish with pebbles beneath allowing natural humidity to occur in drier regions, keeping moist the pebble filled base under the plant suck up water creating more humidity around the plant.
Enjoy your day, these pretty blooms they pleasing to the eye with the variety of shades they come in, including violet.
