The Purple African Violet, known as Saintpaulia ionantha ‘Devotion’ in its vibrant purple with white edge form, is a beloved and iconic houseplant known for its charming appearance and long-lasting blooms. With soft, velvety foliage and elegant, bicolor flowers that bloom in tight clusters. 

The African violet is prized for its long-lasting blooms and wide range of flower colors, particularly the classic, blue-flowered varieties, as well as striking burgundy, soft pinks, crisp whites, and colorful mixed-color blends.  

The African violet varieties stand out in any indoor setting. Its compact size and ability to thrive on windowsills and tabletops make it a favorite among houseplant enthusiasts, particularly those who appreciate color and form in small spaces. 

The foliage is one of its standout features: soft, deep green, and covered with fine hairs that give the plant its characteristic velvety texture.

The African violet purple Leaves are typically rounded with slightly scalloped edges, growing in symmetrical rosettes.

Mature African Violets purple stays compact, typically reaching 12 inches wide and up to 8 inches tall, making them ideal for small containers or decorative planters.

The African violets bloom is semi-double or double in form, with rich purple petals rimmed by crisp white edges, a stunning contrast that feels both elegant and cheerful.

A unique aspect of this plant is its ability to flower in lower light compared to many other blooming houseplants, making it especially suitable for apartments or homes with filtered light.

African Violets bloom repeatedly throughout the year under proper conditions, especially when grown indoors with consistent care. Purple African Violet flowers attract hummingbirds, bees, and butterflies due to their bright color and sweet nectar, making them a popular choice for gardeners looking to attract pollinators.  

When it comes to care, the purple African Violets require bright, indirect light, ideally from east- or north-facing windows. Direct sunlight can scorch the leaves, while low light will hinder blooming. For soil, use a light, fast-drained, specialized  potting mix, opens in a new tab that retains some moisture but doesn’t stay soggy. Watering should be done when the top inch of soil feels dry—typically every 5–7 days during the growing season. These plants are sensitive to cold water on their leaves, so bottom watering or using room-temperature water is preferred.  

When grown indoors, they grow best in temperatures between 65–75°F and humidity around 50–60%.

Though primarily grown indoors in the United States, they can be placed outdoors in Southern Florida and Hawaii, during warm months in USDA zones 10–11, as long as they’re shielded from direct sun and temperature extremes.

According to ASPCA, the African Violet Saintpaulia, is non-toxic to humans and pets, which adds to their appeal as safe indoor greenery. When planted in a group or as a mixed arrangement with other African Violet hybrids of different colors, the contrast in blooms and textures can create a vibrant and living floral mosaic.

Some dogs will probably love this.
Flavor Name: Peanut Butter, Size: Medium
My dogs were not very excited about this bone. I don’t think they are particularly picky, so I’m not sure why.

Depending on dog size, you may want to adjust bone size
Flavor Name: Peanut Butter, Size: Medium
This bone is attractive to both my 60 lb dogs. They're more light to moderate chewers at best but I remember when my youngest was a puppy, these things would buy me quite a few hours of quiet time. We repeatedly bought the ring style- must have had at least 5 as she was a rather voracious chewer. However, I don't mind replacing Nylabones one bit; they hold up well/can take A LOT of wear and make an excellent redirect for your bored puppy who ruined your favorite pair of shoes. I went down a size and bought a medium; I find that both dogs (full sized male Australian Shepherd + female lab/doberman mix) have trouble carrying a large size due to weight and this one is perfect for them! I would previously buy large ones who would barely ever get touched. However, you also don't want to buy one that's too small, so it's a fine line when you've got a dog who is somewhat in a weight range borderline.
