Variety description

10 August 2026

The variety is a standard saintpaulia. Its flowers have a simple pansy-type form and are pink in color. A characteristic feature is the sticktite trait, thanks to which wilting flowers remain on the peduncle for a long time without dropping.

The plant has simple dark green foliage. The variety is intended for cultivation as an indoor ornamental plant in conditions of bright diffused light and moderate humidity.
