Air that is too dry will cause the African violet leaves to turn brown. African violets need a humidity level of about 80-percent, which is typically higher than the average indoor temperature for most homes. Thankfully, you can correct this problem by increasing the humidity level around the plant.

To trim off dead flowers from the African violets, carefully hold the spent bloom and snip it off as close to the dead tissue as possible. Don’t cut off the flower stalk as this is where new blooms are produced. Furthermore, avoid tearing or ripping off the bloom, as this can damage the plant.
