Just wanted to know if this will be allowed.  One of my babies has had the growing point eaten by snails.  >:( I left it just to see what happened,  and joy of joys... ;D now 2 new flowering heads are growing well.  I dont think that they will both grow as tall as just one head but I'm giving it a go.
Take time to stop and smell the flowers.
