Can I break off the stalk of my african violet plant?

Question

Will the plant bloom next year?

Answer 1

It is risky, since they are so sensitive to infection, but they tend to shoot offsets when the top is cut. Just know that if you attempt this without perfect sterility, then there is a great chance that you could lose the plant to infection.
