This violet is browning all over. It’s blooming, so it’s not unhappy, but it’s kind of ugly when even the new leaves brown. Any thoughts?

    Are the leaves getting wet? They like humidity but if water sits on the leaves, they rot. If you’re watering from the top, try bottom watering instead!

      I do bottom water, but it’s possible I’m splashing the leaves while doing it—I’ll try to be more careful!

    It might be because the leaves don’t have enough green. Plants that have all white leaves can start to turn brown. I would make sure to not put water on the leafs too, I water mine from the bottom and it’s really happy.
