Maybe, the less green there is the more difficult it is for the plant to generate enough energy to live on. Give it as much bright indirect light as you can. Even a grow light would be good. It's really pretty though!

I’d appreciate some help with my African violet , how much light \& the best way to water it. It’s looking very sad and limp. It was watered 5 days ago. Thank you

there's supposed to be like 70% green to 30%pink but def more light. its super pretty though

ideally yes too much variegation is not good for plant health BUT i am jealous because all pink leaves are so pretty😂

Generally, when a variegated plant is more mature, it will have more variegation. Idk how long you’ve had this one for, but it’s looking pretty young, so I wouldn’t worry.

It's pretty young. I've only had it about six months.

Kk. I wouldn’t worry abt it then.
