I have not pulled it out. My roots never looked great from the day I got the plant. The ones that are visible are long gone (straw-like) and even when I poke into the potting material most of what is visible is more of the same. I figured I had to have some nice roots somewhere down there because the plant was bursting with blooms when I received it...I am so disappointed. I nurtured it lovingly for almost a year and waited so patiently for this Spring to come and when I saw that spike I thought it had to be a wonderful thing.

I'm not looking forward to pulling out the plant, what should I expect to see if it's crown rot? And what about my apparent new little leaf?
