Good afternoon friends! Newbie plant momma here & I’ve just been gifted a potted African Violet & would love any advice to keep her happy and healthy. Since I’m very new to plant care and this plant is above my knowledge I’ve been following the instructions this app gave me but I’m very open to more advice! (ㅅ´ ˘ `)
all i know is they do well in low light bc theyre a tropical plabt(dont quote me)and are used to growibg on the ground

Definitely bottom water. They can get crown rot very easily if you top water them. They do like bright indirect light.
