My agnata red leaf, I see one is a leaf for sure, but the other 3 have the visualization of flower buds. Possible? Would you cut one or two off, like your would cut off vft's, so they ca support themselves better?


Also, here's my pirouette going dreadfully slow changing to gray, and my pirouette. What are those light green blotches on the leaves. Not really focused too well but you get the point.

Three flower stalks at once is definitely possible; they tend not to sap as much energy off the plant as with Dionaea, so the choice is yours really. I tend to just let the flowers run their course and see if anything comes of them courtesy of tiny insects.

In the first picture I can somewhat see the patches you are talking about; are you able to get a clearer image? If they are what I'm perceiving, then I've had this happen as well and, for me, it appeared to happen when the plant has gone through a spell of unusual dryness (including a drop in humidity), or while the leaf formation has been changing. I'm trying to recollect the most recent instance but it's eluding me at the moment, sorry about that.

Also, my apologies for the delay in replying to this topic. Things have been rather manic.
