Is the plant very young? I suspect this will correct itself as the plant ages.

My Sunset isn't old enough to have buds so I'm wondering how many flowers does the flowerstalk usually have. It must have a lot because it is known as a very floriferous plant.

Nancy,
I suspect you are right- although later stalks are also producing more little buds, they are present right away, so there doesn't seem to be any worry about chopping the stalk off before it has bloomed out.

The first few flower stalks only had 1 or 2 buds initially, but they all seem to have another 1 or 2 smaller buds growing in. The later ones are getting bigger, there is one coming up with 5 buds.

It seems an especially impressive plant to me since the flowers are large, not the smaller ones like you sometimes see.

I have had the same thing happen to me.

A couple of weeks ago I planted my first Streptocarpus seeds and now have several TINY seedlings. Please can anyone give me advice about when to start feeding and with what? Am so excited and don't want to lose them...any other advice would be good!!
