| Key Tips for Success: Popular African Violets will flower continuously in good natural light conditions or with 14-16 hours of artificial light per day. Very high light can cause yellow leaves, but inadequate light will discourage flowering. Avoid splashing cold water on the leaves, as this can cause yellow spots. Remove wilted flowers and leaves to discourage rot. Leaf petioles may rot from absorbing soluble chemicals where they touch the rim of the pot. Cover the pot rim with foil to prevent this. Remove dying leaves to avoid gray mold and crown rot. |
