African Violets

Is my violet ok?

9 years ago

Hi! So I've had this violet for about 5 years now. Today I noticed these brown spots on my violet

They look almost like bruises. They are evenly brown and in the center of the leaves. Only a few leaves were affected. The texture of the leaf does not change and it feels like a healthy leaf. I've never had any problems, and the only thing I'm doing differently is the plant is now closer to the window. I've removed the leaves, just to be safe, but should I be more worried?

We're all of those leaves older leaves at the outer edge of the plant? It looks like it may just be old leaves. :)

Usually it happens when it is hot. Remove the affected leaves, may be find a cooler spot for this one.
