The Best Soil for Your African Violets

African Violet Soil Mix Provides Nutrients & Optimum Environment for These Houseplants to Thrive

African violets are lovely houseplants prized for their vibrant coloring and rich green foliage. Flowers display deep shades of vibrant blue, bright white, or royal purple coloring and have attractive yellow centers. These delicate flowers rebloom numerous times per year with optimal growing conditions and in the right soil.

Caring for African Violets

It’s a good idea to regularly maintain your African Violet plants by removing dead leaves or spent flowers as you come upon them. This tidying up around your plant will help it grow better. Spring through fall, you should fertilize it every other week with phosphorous-based plant food if needed. 

Light Factors

African Violets enjoy bright ambient light. Indirect light near a north-facing window is a good option. Be sure not to let direct sunlight scorch your plant.

Watering

This plant loves the spa treatment. Place it in a warm and humid environment. African Violet thrives when placed in a regularly used bathroom, as steam from showers and baths will nurture it. 

Potting soil for African violets should be moist but not wet. Avoid overwatering your African Violet as soggy, poorly draining soil can cause root rot. When watering, add lukewarm water at the base of the plant so as to avoid getting the leaves wet. Directly watering the leaves can cause brown spotting. 

African Violets thrive at temperatures between 60 to 70 degrees Fahrenheit. During the colder months, keep them away from cold drafts. 

What Sets Our Soil for African Violets Apart?  

Our African Violet Potting Soil mix provides longer-lasting blooms, and increased vigor, and encourages lush foliage expansion. Our precise mixture of the ingredients provides a semipermeable soil that helps African Violet roots gain access to fresh air. In nature, these lovely plants enjoy a humid environment with their roots often exposed. Our loose and porous potting soil will help the roots stay healthy. So what does the best soil for African violets look like? Let's explore the ingredients below.

Composted Pine Bark

Pine bark acts like a fertilizer and supplies vital nutrients to your African Violet. It also stores away excess water for later use by the plant. 

Organic Perlite

This ingredient locks in moisture while also allowing excess water to drain away. Thereafter, it slowly releases moisture as your plant needs it, which helps your plant stay perfectly moist and fresh!

Perlite makes things light and airy too. Perlite contains tiny air pockets that directly provide oxygen to the roots of your plant. This enables roots to breathe and get proper ventilation.  

Organic Peat Moss

A balanced amount of peat moss maintains the right moisture level. Thereafter plant roots can absorb this much-needed moisture as they need it. Other potting mixes add too much peat moss, which can retain larger sums of water than what African Violets actually need. 

Garden Lime

Garden Lime is an amazing mineral that has the ability to balance soil pH while also making nutrients more bioavailable to plant roots. It can also provide essential minerals like calcium and magnesium. 

Drainage 

Our soil is specifically designed to provide good drainage and aeration, while at the same time optimizing moisture control. 

How to Use African Violet Potting Soil for Your Plants

Though African Violets are relatively easy to take care of, their roots need special consideration. To simplify root care, it’s essential to give your plants the best start by providing them with the right growing medium. 

Not all African violet soil recipes are created equal. We work to bring together the right balance of nutrients and minerals to ensure optimal growth and flowering. 

What’s more, individual plant species have adapted to their own unique growing conditions and our potting mix takes native growing conditions into mind. We do our best to simulate the natural soil environment that wild African Violets enjoy.

Perfect fit in my dog crate, nice loft to it
Color: Grey, Size: 35" x 23"x 3.5"
Really nice dog bed, fits perfectly in the crate that I have. This thing is rather large and bulky and difficult to wash. I wish that there was a zipper on it and that you could remove the stuffing so that you can wash just the cover. Before putting it inside the dog crate, I had it on my couch. My daughter thought it was a new pillow for her to use and was bummed when I told her it was for the dogs. She liked it and thought it was quite comfortable.

So soft, nice padding, & color perfect for a dog’s bed
Color: Beige, Size: 41" x 27"x 4", Color: Beige, Size: 41" x 27"x 4"
Of course, this dog bed came lumpy, but once you roll it out and manipulate it it lays perfect. My dog Loki outgrew the little one that we had but this one is perfect. He’s 55 pounds and I would say it’s even a little bit big for him. We will definitely keep it though. It’s so soft and pretty and Loki will not leave it so it’s a win-win.

Great Pet Beds!
Color: Grey, Size: 41" x 27"x 4"
These dog beds are wonderful! I have two large dogs (65-70 lbs) who lay on them daily. They’ve maintained their shape and thickness. The size is perfect, and they’re easy to spot clean. I definitely recommend them, especially if using in a carpeted room. Great value!

Single greatest thing I’ve ever bought for my dogs
Color: Charcoal, Size: 35" x 23"x 3.5", Color: Charcoal, Size: 35" x 23"x 3.5"
Few years ago we got our dog a dog. It was a bad idea. Our first dog is incredibly smart. He’d much rather hang out with humans, sitting in his own chair at the table while we play board games and chat than chase a ball. He uses talking buttons and picked it up quickly. Even as a little puppy he was kind of serious and when we’d take him to the dog park he’d mostly just run around barking at other dogs who were having too much fun. Then came his brother who turned out to be the absolute opposite in every way. A silly, goofy, snuggly, floppy little muppet of a dog. Highly empathetic and Looooves to make people laugh. Our other dog mostly wanted nothing to do with him, barely tolerating him at the best of times. We thought, surely he’ll learn to love his brother. But 3 years later… nope. Our first dog loves a good pillow so I thought this might make a good gift. I had no idea just HOW good. For some reason ever since our dog opened this gift he’s been obsessed. But so has our other dog. We initially were worried it would become one more thing for them to fight over BUT we were wrong. The dogs have been getting a long SO well! As long as it’s on this pillow, our first dog allows our second dog to come close enough to touch him. They sleep next to each other, they wrestle, there’s no growling or grumping and our first dog will come over and lay next to his brother if he’s laying on this. We’ve started calling it The Peace Pillow. Anyway, I could have just said “it’s great” but it might actually be magic. Your experience may vary.
