Hi,
I have a strange geranium (pelargonium) [Embarrassed] ! A flower stem has finished blooming and on the tip of the stem are two small leaves. It looks like a new shoot is growing on the TIP OF THE FLOWER STEM. This is so weird. Check pic below.

Anything I should do to it?

Wow, that is unique! I've never seen a pelargonium leaf out at the tip of a flower stem. I have no idea what the pro's would do but I'd let it get a bit larger and then try rooting it as a cutting. Let us know what happens with it, please! [Smile]

Life is not a journey to the grave with the intent of arriving safely in a pretty and well-preserved body, but rather to skid in broadside, thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and loudly proclaiming,
"WHOO HOO! WHAT A RIDE!"
