African Violets (Saintpaulia) are compact, flowering houseplants beloved for their vibrant blooms and fuzzy, deep green leaves. Native to Tanzania and other parts of East Africa, they thrive in indoor environments with proper care. African violets produce flowers in a range of colors and can bloom year-round under optimal conditions.
We offer mature African Violets that are in bloom / already budding as well as ones that have already been through their first blooming cycle ('Out Of Bloom' option). We do this so you have a choice to not have to wait to enjoy your plant in bloom or save money purchasing one that isn't blooming at the moment.
Care Instructions:
Sunlight: 10+ hours of Indirect sunlight for optimal blooming. Do not expose to direct sunlight.
Watering: Water when top of the soil is dry. Water in the morning is best to avoid mildew. African Violets like to be moist, but not soggy. Dump out excess water, do not over water.
Fertilization: Liquid Fertilizer 8-14-9 Use a weak solution each time you water for best blooming results
Temperature & Humidity: 60°to 80°F; 40% to 50% humidity
