African Violet 'Pink'

Pink African Violet 🌸 has soft fuzzy leaves and cheerful pink blooms that bring a bright little pop of color to desks, windowsills, and tabletops without taking up much space. It does best indoors in bright indirect light, where it can bloom well and stay compact as long as it is kept out of harsh direct sun. This is a manageable plant for most growers, but it does best with a steady routine and prefers not to dry out completely. Pro tip: water the soil gently rather than splashing the leaves 💧—wet foliage and soggy soil are the quickest ways to make this one unhappy.
