| Several of my plants are producing very short flower stems with buds that never develop.
What could be the problem? I do not see any insects/mites |

| What are other symptoms of the plant? This could be anything from a lack of humidity to some dreadful bug. Nancy |

| Hi wesinmi, I'm probably one of the least qualified people on this board to give advice. However... I had a similar problem with one store bought AV. It looked sickly even then. So I cut the long-stemmed leaves, cut suckers, and then put a plastic baggy around the plant. Within days those miniscule buds started blooming. The suckers are also growing back rather quickly. |

| I beg to differe with the "least qualified" because it sounds like you've had the experience that the original poster was asking about. Post away, honey! Dora |
