# I got this plant last year when my friend thought she was killing it…

_Posted by Stephanie on 2025-10-13_

I got this plant last year when my friend thought she was killing it cause the flowers were dying I told her this was normal for this type of plant and that the plant would send out pups and the the mama's would die off and the pups would bloom. I have 3 pups but they are still small and the mama's still look good so I didn't cut them off and then last week I saw that the mama's are turning red again. Is this normal? I didn't think they would do this. Thanks for any input.
