Window sills or window boxes are ideal, but too much sun will bleach out leaves and flowers may brown and fall off. It's best to allow only a couple hours of indirect sunlight daily, moving it to a more protected area the remainder of the day. Watering: African Violets only need water when the leaves become slightly wilted or the soil becomes very dry. If watering from the top, be sure not to splash water on the leaves or soak the crown of the plant. A second method is to immerse the bottom of the pot in standing water until the soil is damp to the touch. Feeding: Fertilizing should occur regularly every six weeks, except during winter months, which only require you feed at the beginning and end of winter. Repotting: African Violets will not grow well if roots become bound. Periodically check to see if your African Violet has become overly rooted and repot if needed.
