hi, this is my parents plant, i dont know how old it its, but its about 50 cm tall, the problem is the stem and the flowers.
is there anything i can do about the stem? or is it normal that its so thin and rangly (is that the right word? i dont know, english isn't my first language) my mother has always pulled off the leaves when they started to turn yellow, i suggested to her that she let them fall off on their own, because i had read that it makes the stem prettier on som other plants.
also the flower buds, they get about 5 mm long and then they wither, can any1 tell me how to make it flower?
