John's mail-order D. spatulata browned after 2 weeks with flower stalk emerging. Christopher: "Without more information I am unable to determine what exactly happened... Changes in humidity and temperature can drastically affect plants. D. spatulata also need warm, bright conditions... It sounds like the plant was trying to flower when it was sent to you and the light level it gets in your home might be lower than what it was used to... causing the plant to expend too much energy flowering." Once brown, plant is dead.
