flower stalk

[larry]

I got the D. capensis with a flower stalk that splits. *Is this normal? *I've looked at other pics of D. capensis flower stalks and those don't have the splits. *Is it me or is this guy producing too many flowers *http://www.**********.com/iBhtml/non-cgi/emoticons/wink.gif *I have 2 D. capensis in a pot, it was one, then split into two. *So the pics below aren't just from one plant, although genetically identical.

Don't worry, mine do the same.I don't know why but they do.

That isn't normal. It looks like a slight mutation.

Nothing to worry about here, capensis often produces split scapes.

Ah nuts!
Not worried, just hoping I had a freak plant http://www.**********.com/iBhtml/non-cgi/emoticons/wink.gif

For outdoor growing, VFT and Sarracenia are the best choices.
