Default Small leaves

Can anyone tell what is happening here? Lack off light?
The leaves are blooming quickly, but very small.
Thanks,
Fran

It def looks like a musella lasiocarpa, maybe it is getting ready to flower?? Do they first send out a a small leaf like the flag leaves on musas before flowering?
