Funny you should mention it, I noticed a scape just last week and
I'm hoping more will emerge. The only thing I did differently was
to repot my U. pubescens into sphagnum instead of peat\sand. This
probably kept the plants a little wetter. Will keep the water up
as much as possible. Now for U.tricolor.......
