Strange growing spectabilis.

Post by karl66 »

One of my large groves of the above has started growing some strange culm's?, when they get about 6 inches high they take a 90 degree bend !! , not a zig/zag but a proper bend?, any ideas. karl.

My one does this on the occasional culm. Nothing to worry about.
