A leaf should come out of there, if I’m not mistaken 🤔 My dragon scale does the same - it pushes out what seems like a stem and then the new leaf pushes out of it.

What Ana said. A new leaf will come, it just looks like a stem in the beginning

Ok, thanks. Just wanted to make sure since I have two Zebrinas and the first plant threw a new leaf and the leaf grew out first then the stem..This one looked different
