Is this a new stem blooming? After neglecting my white champion for like a week I finally refilled his water and brought him inside. And after him getting water and being inside for one day he’s already sprouting a bunch! But I was wondering what this white stuff was on the side? 🤔 (sorry my camera does NOT want to focus) #HappyPlants #PlantsMakePeopleHappy #PropagationStation #WhatTheSuccWednesday #NewGrowth
