This is happening in the 2 largest seedlings, and it seems to be a flower stalk coming up. Is this normal to happen in 3 month old seedlings? These days have been quite hot, don't if this help to explain.   |

my intermedia bloomed early this year too....they germinated at the end of June.... no harm done so far. the smallest that bloomed was about a half inch across and had a single lone flower on it. the biggest now has several stalks, with many blooms, and many fat seed pods  Alex |

That seems to be normal behavior for the D. intermedia - Cuba that I grow. They never get much bigger than a nickel and usually flower themselves to death.

Here, too, some species like D. intermedia, D. capillaris, etc. are often a bit hasty in flowering.

Hi! I would suggest if multiple plants are doing this, to let one or two "flower to death" and be your seed producers...and clip the spikes of the others on site, to allow you to get some nice size on your plants. ;)Then, you could send some seed to the ICPS seedbank!
