Remember to place them near a window facing north or east to ensure they receive the right amount of light without burning the leaves. Occasionally, you can rotate the plant for even growth.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/1millionideas.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/african-violet-13.jpg\" alt=\"10 tips to make your African violet bloom all year round - 73\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>They fixed it<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>2. CONSTANT TEMPERATURE<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Maintain a constant room temperature between&nbsp;&nbsp;<strong>18 and 24\u00b0C (65-75\u00b0F<\/strong>&nbsp;&nbsp;). Your African violets should not be exposed to drafts, sudden temperature changes or cold windowsills, as this can stress the plant.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/1millionideas.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/african-violet-10.jpg\" alt=\"10 tips to make your African violet bloom all year round - 75\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>They fixed it<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>3. ADEQUATE WATERING<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Keep the soil consistently moist but not waterlogged. Water from below by placing the pot in a saucer filled with water, allowing the roots to absorb the humidity. Also,&nbsp;&nbsp;<strong>avoid spraying water on the leaves<\/strong>&nbsp;&nbsp;, as this can cause unsightly stains.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/1millionideas.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/african-violet-03.jpg\" alt=\"10 tips to make your African violet bloom all year round - 77\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>They fixed it<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>4. MOISTURE<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">African violets prefer&nbsp;&nbsp;<strong>higher humidity levels<\/strong>&nbsp;&nbsp;. You can place a tray filled with water near the plants, use a humidity tray or a room humidifier to increase the humidity around them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"https:\/\/1millionideas.com\/24-beautiful-purple-succulents\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>See also&nbsp;<\/strong>&nbsp;&nbsp;24 beautiful purple succulents<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/1millionideas.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/african-violet-08.jpg\" alt=\"10 tips to make your African violet bloom all year round - 79\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>They fixed it<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>5. WELL DRAINING SOIL<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Use&nbsp;&nbsp;<strong>a light, well-draining potting mix<\/strong>&nbsp;&nbsp;designed specifically for African violets. Good drainage is very important because it prevents root rot.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/1millionideas.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/african-violet-07.jpg\" alt=\"10 tips to make your African violet bloom all year round - 81\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>6. FERTILIZE REGULARLY<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">African violets are&nbsp;&nbsp;<strong>light eaters<\/strong>&nbsp;&nbsp;. To facilitate flowering, use a balanced, water-soluble fertilizer diluted to half strength every&nbsp;&nbsp;<strong>4 to 6 weeks<\/strong>&nbsp;&nbsp;during the growing season (spring to early fall). Reduce or eliminate fertilizer during the winter months.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/1millionideas.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/african-violet-06.jpg\" alt=\"10 tips to make your African violet bloom all year round - 83\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>7. PRUNING AND DECAPITATION<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Promptly remove wilted flowers and damaged<\/strong>&nbsp;&nbsp;or yellowed leaves. This encourages the plant to invest energy in producing new flowers rather than maintaining old ones.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/1millionideas.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/african-violet-12.jpg\" alt=\"10 tips to make your African violet bloom all year round - 85\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>8. AVOID WET LEAVES<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Wet leaves can lead to&nbsp;&nbsp;<strong>fungal problems<\/strong>&nbsp;&nbsp;. If any drops of water get on the leaves, you can gently dry them with a paper towel.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/1millionideas.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/african-violet-05.jpg\" alt=\"10 tips to make your African violet bloom all year round - 87\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>9. ADEQUATE SPACE<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Give your African violets adequate space to grow without crowding. This prevents&nbsp;&nbsp;<strong>moisture buildup<\/strong>&nbsp;&nbsp;and allows&nbsp;&nbsp;<strong>air to circulate<\/strong>&nbsp;&nbsp;.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/1millionideas.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/african-violet-04.jpg\" alt=\"10 tips to make your African violet bloom all year round - 89\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>10. PEST CONTROL<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Inspect your plants regularly for signs of pests such as&nbsp;&nbsp;<strong>aphids or mealybugs<\/strong>&nbsp;&nbsp;. Treat infestations promptly with neem oil or insecticidal soap.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/1millionideas.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/african-violet-02.jpg\" alt=\"10 tips to make your African violet bloom all year round - 91\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">African violets are wonderful houseplants that can brighten any space with their colorful, long-lasting flowers.
