    Hi! African Violets bloom almost all the time. Your problem might be that you aren’t giving an adequate amount of light or you are not giving it fertilizer.

      I have them in a very low light environment, do you think that’s the issue?

      I do. The love bright light but not direct! They are known to love grow lights!

      Hey I also have an African violet and I’m buying a grow light, should she be directly under the light ?

      For best results, mount your light about a foot above Miniature African violets and about a foot and a half above standard African violets.
