    Hello
    I have an older Haworthia fasciata that is about 25-30 cm tall and has produced several small off-shoots from the base over the years (I potted them separately and they're doing well - one just bloomed). The other day I noticed the parent plant has an offshoot emerging from near the top of the plant, maybe 5-10 cm down from the top. Is this unusual? It's going to be tremendously top-heavy if it grows from up there, so is there anything I should be doing to prevent it or help it somehow?
    Thank-you,
    tuula
