Persian Violet (Exacum Affine), originates from Yemen, is a perennial plant that lives in humid tropical and subtropical areas. As an indoor plant, Persian Violet is famous for not only its shiny green foliage, but also its small yet showy purple flowers with light yellow pollen masses in the center. Before blooming, its flower buds turn pink from green. Once flowering occurs, they become purple and carry light fragrance, which make Persian violet very attractive. In addition to being used as a home decor, Persian Violets are also commonly used as ground cover to add some greenery due to its densely-grown greenish leaves. On the other side, as an outdoor cultivation, Persian Violet blooms in spring and summer.
