Baja_Costero said:Once they decide to flower, they have committed to dying afterwards. You can prune the inflorescence (I actually did this to see what would happen) and that does not affect the final outcome. They usually make plenty of offsets so the babies carry on regardless.


Oh goodo; I hadn't realized this was the beginning of the end once they decide to flower at all. Over the years yes I have had my flapjacks produce lots of little ones and have removed the larger stems etc.

Thanks for that Smiling That's my something new learnt for today.
If you truly love nature, you will find beauty everywhere.
