Just repotted this African Violet I saved from Lowe’s yesterday. I though she was in decent shape until today when I noticed that she was overwatered. Her bottom was leaking disgusting stuff, so I realized that the water got to her roots. I immediately did a repot with new soil and made sure she had all that bad soil off of her. Her roots didn’t look the healthiest, but I can only hope that with this repot she will be able to live better and recover! ☺️
