About a month ago I posted how there was new growth on my Silver Dragon that looked like a possible bloom— well I ended up pinching it off \& another one grew😅  
I decided to leave this one alone, what do you guys think?

I think leaf too. I have my first ever Alocasia bloom and it looks like this. Very unusual.

Do you have any pictures of when it was first starting to form? 🤩

I thought I did but couldn’t find it. Sorry.

I’m getting some inflorescences on my Dragon Scale and I’m sure I read somewhere that cutting them off doesn’t work as the plant will just redirect growth back to another inflorescence. Don’t quote me on that without further research, but it may answer your question!
