Well a tiny tornado came through my house today ( moms great nephew age 3) that child runs a million miles a minute.

Well I had my frilly doris in a hanging basket....and somehow it was within his reach not sure how. He broke off the baby growth!! ....I know hes a kid just saying glad I was not home...or hell would hath come....we have already had a keep him away from my babies talk....

So main question is will it grow a new growth since he somehow pulled that one off. And it was like a good inch grown as well!!

See Kindra, I have rain killing mine, you have kid tornado:-) My catasetum from Thailand that is in the winter rest from September already is actually having one new growth on one side, growing big, and another side has small tiny one popping up. Plant usually tries to survive, and when it looses one, it will most likely push another one if it is healthy to continue growing!
