It is strange how crazy people get about flowers. Up to a year ago, I couldn't care less about them. You see, I have always had what I would call a brown thumb. By that I mean that I cannot make anything grow. All I could do is make plants die. I was never all that depressed about my amazing ability to kill plants. I always took it as just the way things were. Getting my first African Violet, however, changed all of that.


If you've never grown African violets, you can not understand what you are missing out on. African violets are absolutely beautiful. They often have vibrant purple flowers, but can come in many different colors including pink, blue, red, yellow, and several others. You would not believe how brightly these things reflect the light. They practically glow. But the best thing about growing African violets is not how they look, but what they can do for someone like me who has never succeeded in keeping a plant alive before. They actually got me interested in flora.

You see African violets, besides being some of the most beautiful flowering plants, are also some of the easiest to grow. They can live in a diverse range of different climates, so you do not have to worry about getting the sunlight and the water just right. And unlike many plants, they need very little space to grow. When you grow African violets, you do not have to constantly upgrade the size of the pot. On the contrary, they do better in a smaller space!

Of course, everyone can succeed with growing cactuses, but African violets are not very much harder to keep alive. If you have never had much success with plants, or if you just want a beautiful dash of color to brighten up your living room, African violets might be just the answer. Caring for African violets is easy, but they do require some work. Therefore, when you grow African Violet plants, it will serve as an introduction to the world of plant care. Before you know it, you'll move on to bigger and better things. Who knows, one day you might be growing orchids. Anything is possible once you learn the basics of plant care. I promise that if you give it a try, you will love this exciting hobby. It is just a matter of starting out on the right foot.
