False African violets are commonly propagated by stem cuttings. Stem cuttings should be four inches long with the bottom leaves removed. Stick the cutting directly into potting mix, or place it in a glass of water until roots begin to form, then plant the cutting.

For more information, please see the PlantTalk script #1341, False African violet.
