this is normal for all cape sundew they start to look like little palm trees, you can cut the top of and put it in soil and see if it grows roots and the bottom portion should start growing again but then your risking killing your plants, but for now as long as it has dew and leaves are still green your plants should be healthy, look forward to some flowers, and they are self fertile so you will get tons of seeds. once my plants started creating there little palm tree like base, they flowered constantly

Cutting the top off from the stem is a form of propagation called "propagation by decapitation". D. capensis are popular plants to propagate by that method, they are very resilient. They root quickly so you should have quite a few more plants not only 2. The decapitated stem may develop more then one growing crown. If the top dies, the bare stem will still recover. But I doubt it, if you have been growing the plant right; the plant should be strong and big to survive.

I say go for it.

Thanks for the info guys. I'll think I'll go the decapitation route. Now that my outside garden is folded up for the year, I need something to fuss over! ;)
