Tropicals & Tender Perennials: Normal behavior ??, 1 by paulashoya

This is my cv. Ruthie. She's been doing fine, except that when I bought her, I potted her into too large of a pot.
I decided not to repot her down again and she was just sitting there until.........
about a week ago she sprouted a new vine from the nub ( what's the correct word for that ? )
where a leaf once was !!

She ( sorry, since it's 'Ruthie' I guess I just think of her as a she :) ) stopped growing at the tip
of the vine right after I repotted her and now instead has sent out this new vine...

And I was wondering, should I trim the tip of the original vine so that it can start growing again ?
It tried about 3 times to restart and then gave up growing.


Any thoughts on if this is normal or not...
