I thought my Silver Dragon was putting out a new leaf, but now I’m thinking it’s a flower. I’d appreciate any insight!

Flower for sure! You’ve got a happy plant 🙂

Thank you!! Should I cut it off? I keep reading that it takes energy away from putting out new leaves.

#### NicTheBucket antwortete am 2024-10-07

That’s totally up to you! If you want to see it bloom you can definitely leave it. Or if you want it to stop giving energy to the flower, you can chop it so that energy can go back into leaf making.

Thank you!

the energy transfer isn’t permanent. once the flower finishes its lifecycle your plant will return to normal function. i would keep it! it’s special

Thank you! I like thinking about it as special.
