I've had this African Violet for some time now. I've always loved the beautiful purple flowers, but for the past few years, it stopped blooming. I tried many things to get the flowers going again. I repotted it, I put new soil, I fertilized it, but...nothing. I was ready to throw it out, and decided to try one more thing. I relocated my plant to a new location, with a slightly different amount of lighting. Over the next few weeks, I noticed a change. The leaves were a richer green, and there was increased growth. Then one day...blooms!!! It turns out that all my little plant needed was a change of location. I'm sure there's a metaphor in there somewhere as it relates to people and what we allow in our lives. But for me, I'm enjoying the simple and beautiful pleasure of gorgeous blooms.
