Characteristics
African Violets are an easy-care, common houseplant that blooms throughout the year. They have thick, hairy, ovate, dark green leaves with long petioles that are arranged in a cluster at the base of the plant. The flowers are bilaterally symmetric with five petals and can be violet, white, or pink in color.
How to Care for African Violets
- Light: Bright to medium indirect light
- Water Preferences: Prefers moist (but never soggy) soil.
- Special Care/Notes: A well-draining soil mix that can also retain moisture is essential for this plant. Do not get the leaves wet when watering. The use of self-watering pots is highly recommended!

"Beautiful nursery filled with the most beautiful selection and variety of anything you can think of! Trees, flowers, indoor/outdoor plants of every kind you can imagine, a wide variety of fantastic retail products and more! Very great customer service from the staff and available to help with a smile. A bit on the pricier side compared to other nurseries in the area, but also worth the money spent on quality products! Will definitely be back 😊"

"As a new empty-nester I've gone down the houseplant rabbit hole and have seen most of the small nurseries in Denver metro. I will drive to go to this AMAZING Garden Center for the variety and quality of their fabulous stock. Better than Paulinos was and that is SAYING something. Staff is beyond helpful and amazing, free repotting if you buy pots too. Really unique home and gift retail. You won't be sorry! Everytime I go up to see my kid at school, I make a stop to see what new inventory they've gotten in... 13/10 highly recommend."

"They have so much fun stuff to look at even if you're not buying plants! They also have a cool deal where, if you buy the container and the plant, they'll plant it for you. There's clothes, kitchen stuff, kids stuff, books, nick snacks, etc. My mom and I go in just to hang out and look at stuff sometimes, but last time, I got this plant. It went from beautiful to MAMMOTH and beautiful. We named her Victoria."
