The African Violet, a popular houseplant, is renowned for its velvety leaves and vividly colored flowers, usually in shades of blue, purple, or white. Native to Tanzania, it thrives in warm, humid environments and indirect sunlight. African Violets are small, low-growing plants forming a rosette of leaves with flowers emerging from the center. They are cherished for their ability to bloom several times a year, adding a continuous splash of color to indoor spaces.
