Any thoughts?
It's happened to me a couple of times with mother plants that suffered by being planted at a bad time, in autumn. In spring, the mother was slow to grow, but the pups took off. I'm sure there could be other reasons. In my case, it wasn't really a problem, but the mother plants continued to be slow growers, bloomed at a small size, and didn't make a big bunch.
