I've had this African violet for about a week and I don't know how to tell whether or not I'm giving it too much sunlight. Any tips to take care of this plant is appreciated 🫶

If it gets burns or starts to yellow.

No direct sun for them! While it’s flowering you can keep it pretty much anywhere to enjoy it, but it will do best in any bright room

Oooh! I'm soooo jelly! 🤣🤣 What a GORGEOUS 😍 Violet! I'm keeping mine about 2 feet from my big kitchen nook windows and the 3 babies are all thriving. I put them on the kitchen table in the am \& then move them back at dinner. Everyone's happy 😊 🪴🎁
