I chopped my B. glabra in May of this year. It responded well and bloomed for the first time in late July. It's been nearly 4 months now but the bracts just keep falling off and growing back. I removed them all manually once and they grew back with even more gusto like the heads of Cerberus.
Not a huge deal admittedly but I'm annoyed because the new branch I've selected as my leader hasn't grown at all for the last 4 months and I don't want to prune it as it hasn't reached the desired thickness yet. Do I just have to wait this out? Is it normal for blooms to persist this long? This is my first experience with a flowering species. It's currently indoors for the winter in my greenhouse.
