Got this bad boy bout a month ago.

dormant (obviously), and started it indoors because it froze in the pot I tried to keep it in.


As much as I'd like to be happy, I'm skeptical on the outcome or affect.
Wasn't going to keep trying and eventually lose it, so it's sitting under a single t5 by my N.window

Doing my daily rounds, I thought this was a yellow mushroom(TRUST me, I'd be the one to have luck as such, hahaha!)
Do they normally flower before any carnivorous leaves?

that flower bulb is the only thing growing in it.
should I cut it?
What would you guys do at this point?

Here in Michigan the weather is pms'ing hourly...
So I couldn't dare putting this puny pot outside just so I can worry all day

Yes that normally flower first. So they don'te at there pollinators. I've cut all my flowers on my new plants because I would rather them put the energy into establishing themselves in the pot and acclamating to my climate.
