first off how old do they have to be to bloom, I thought it was 5 years or does it depend on other factors. I have had this plant for less then a year but it seems like its doing really well. It really mystifies me because this plant is really still a baby less then 4 feet tall.


My plant appears to be tying to flower its newest growth shows a bud devloping , it has 10 leaves on it now some of which are full sized. The newsest leaf is smaller then the previous new leaf pobably because of its bloom. Will blooming sap the plant? I know venus flytraps you should never let bloom but are theses different. I also repotted it a few months ago into rich fertile soil.
