I've never called it a pre flag leaf. I've always called it a half leaf for obvious reason. Most of the time its right at half length. That's what I've observed in my climate and with my varieties.

I've seen bottom swelling in November and with proper protection I'll see the half leaf, flag leaf and bloom the following June. It really depends on the pace of the plant and climate.
