Positive	Plantcrazii	On Feb 28, 2007, Plantcrazii from Dallas, TX (Zone 8a) wrote: This African violet has a sticktite blossom and will bloom a lot longer than a normal African violet. Sticktite is a modern hybrid African violet with non-dropping blossoms. I am going to be on the lookout for more of these to add to my collection.
