YES!! When mine flowers the leaves get small. I hate it! I try to cut off the flowers. But it just seems to make more and more flowers as I cut them off. The next leaf will bring more flowers.

I wish there was a way to prevent it from flowering and focus on just BIG leaves!

I have never grown them from seed, I toss the flowers so I have not ever attempted to harvest seeds.
