Violets are unpretentious flowers that grow in lush and bright caps.

When violets are sad, they lower their leaves and look orphaned. But sometimes it happens that the violet raises its leaves, forming a compact bush.

What to do to make violets drop their leaves

There are several reasons why violets raise their leaves upward.

1. Leaves may bristle due to lack of sunlight. Plants standing in partial shade, in the back of the room, will become smaller and stretch out.

The flower pots will have to be moved closer to the light and rotated. This will help form an even rosette. The violet will easily tolerate such rotation.

2. The flower can lift its leaves up due to a lack of moisture in the soil or air. In winter, apartments have dry and warm air, and the violet can suffer from a lack of moisture. Gradually, the leaves will curl up or lift up.
To avoid such trouble, you need to improve watering.

3. Leaves may rise up due to poor soil. Therefore, timely fertilizing is necessary.
