@braxa26 you can't fool me, those are proto-talons
@braxa26 oooh I love it when they get to that stage!! Enjoy!!
@braxa26 That dionea is going to die if you don't prune those stems. (They massively deplete the rhizome, so that after flowering the plant usually dies. This time of year, I have to keep a close eye on mine to stop them suiciding through sex. The cure is castration!)
@braxa26 that's so cool. I've never managed to keep one alive long enough for the plant to even think about flowering.
@braxa26 The one my wife keeps has flowered. I didn't know that flowering could lead to plant death. We shall see.
