Description

Scientific name Saintpaulia ionantha is safe and even beneficial for both cats and dogs. This plant requires strong indirect light 10-12 hrs daily, temperatures between 68° – 85°F, 80% humidity, re-pot annually, and watering once a week. It is considered a fairly picky plant and should not be watered from above as water hitting the leaves may cause permanent spotting.
