queen violet is blooming but she has this powdery, sand like white stuff on her leaves and I just want to make sure it’s not a sign of something very bad!

any chance this is in the kitchen and someone was baking and some flour got into the air and onto these leaves? 😅 otherwise it looks a bit like powdery mildew

I use micro fiber towel to wipe my violet leaves. Or soft towel.
