I started a few florist goxinias from leaves, and now I have plants, some bigger, some smaller, with 6-10 leaves on each. On all of the plants, I see little suckers growing in the junctions above most of the leaves. Some of the leaves have what looks like little buds forming, but most of them have tiny bunches of leaves forming, so I'm guessing these are suckers. I know it's better to remove these on african violets, but what about florist gloxinias? The suckers aren't really growing, just kind of sitting there, very tiny. Should I remove them? Also, if there is a little sucker growing, does it mean there won't be flowers from that leaf junction? Does it mean the plants were stressed out in some way if suckers are forming, or is it normal for florist gloxinias?
Thank you in advance for any advice you can give!
