African Violet
(Saintpaulia ionantha)
Pronunciation: Saynt-pawl-ee-a ee-on-anth-a

Care: Part Sun Prefers moderately moist soil. Water thoroughly when the soil surface is dry to touch. Do not allow the plant to sit in water. Do not wet the foliage when watering. Can flower continuously throughout the year if provided the proper care. Plants perform better when moderately rootbound. Too much light will cause the leaves to yellow. Remove any dry leaves to prevent mold from forming. A fertilizer formulated for African Violets is recommended at least monthly.
