There’s nothing quite like getting the best of both worlds in something that is important to us. Such is the case with African Violets plants which merge the easy care and health benefits of houseplants with the beauty and wonder of flowers. African Violets (Saintpaulia) are a real crowd pleaser and it’s easy to understand why.
Everyone knows that owning plants in the home increases the quality of the air as photosynthesis helps replenish essential gases such as oxygen while neutralizing noxious gases such as formaldehyde, carbon monoxide and others. African Violets, though small in stature, also trade in unhealthy air for clean, quality breathable O2.
Just think. That’s just one thing that you get when you buy African Violet houseplants. Asthmatics catch your breath after reading that exciting news then proceed to the even better news. Being an asthmatic myself, I know from personal experience that such deep breathing is a lot more entertaining when fresh plants are around. In any case, there’s another major perk to having African Violet houseplants in the home or office. They are beautiful!
I know, I know. Without much fanfare that announcement seems much less colorful. Taking care to wait for the drumroll, I’ll repeat –pause for the drumroll– They’re beautiful! African Violets are gorgeous plants that make picky plant owners spring to life. Houseplants in themselves are attractive things but when they flower…even better! African Violets bloom in a variety of colors such as violet (obviously), red, white, pink, cream, and sometimes even in two or more colors. Everyone wins.
For the person that wants beautiful bourgeoning blossoms in the home and out as well as the person that wants a traditional and classic houseplant, African Violets (Saintpaulia) are the way to go. It’s a great gift idea. Carefree and creative people enjoy the pretty blossoms and easy care of African Violets to make those blooms really pop. More austere traditionalists enjoy the classic appeal of the attractive houseplant while noting the blooms as a graceful side benefit. How can you not go with African Violets when sifting through plant and flower gift ideas?
I love those violets, they are so cute. Violets are my favorite flowers because my favorite color is violet, so I love anything that is violet.
