Crown of thorns - February 24th, 2007 at 02:53 AM
hiya. my sister has had a crown of thorns for about 7 years. it was 5" when we got it, and has crown at least a foot. it has bright, healthy leaves, flowers almost constantly and seems to be very healthy. however, about 4 months ago, we noticed a strange "growth" shooting off one of the branches. it's squiggly, with lots of nodes and arms and little bitty clusters of greenish balls. we thought it was a way to propagate, but we're scared to cut it off and it hasn't reached for the dirt that it's hanging over. it's done nothing and now it's kind of wilting a little. any ideas? thanks much!!!!!!!!!!
