My sarr put up a flower stalk and these are the pics.
And don't anybody tell me to cut it!

Congrats! Nobody will tell you to cut it, especially me. This sarra flower with short stalk but beautiful.

Hi
your winter is coming up I believe ,so this may not get through it , it may want to go into dormancy ,unless you have the light and temp up to spring time climate and summer,so the flower will be able to produce pollen and you can pollinate it , then the seed pod must ripen , all this needs sun and warmth just so you know if you do cut it off ,it will not hurt the plant at all ok !

Yh Thanks. That's why I'm keeping my flowering vft's and that sarr in a rectangular fish tank with some light to keep the temp up so that they won't go into dormancy!
But as soon as they've finished flowering and produced some seeds (hopefully) I will let them go into dormancy

Nice plants!
