| In a word: "african". In more than one word: Different family: They are both loosely called violets on account of the five petalled, purple/violet flowers. |

| African violets can't be grown outdoors in most climates...... they're houseplants...... violets despite a few..... can be grown outdoors..... with ease..... unless you have no shade...... they require part shade and do not like drought...... :) |
