What’s inside
Three pages of real, practical guidance —
nothing filler, nothing fluff.
I made this guide because I wished I’d had it when I was starting out. It covers the three things that determine whether your plant thrives or struggles.

5-Minute Weekly Checklist
A short, repeatable routine: soil check, dead leaf removal, rotation, pest scan. Five minutes a week keeps most problems away.
You’re in good company.
My Violet Life has been helping African violet growers since 2021 — from complete beginners to collectors with rooms full of named cultivars.
Hi, I’m Nicolette.
I started growing African violets in 2021 and promptly fell down a very deep, very beautiful rabbit hole. What began as two plants from Lowe’s turned into a full plant room, a YouTube channel, a blog, and an eBay store full of named cultivars I can’t stop propagating.
I made this guide for the grower I was in my first year — the one frantically Googling “why are my violet leaves drooping” at 11pm. Everything in it is practical, honest, and based on what actually works.
