Mysterious freebie seed from ali bongo is a mutant

  1. This is not such an issue. I'm just curious about why this bizarre creature has been allowed to live.

    Attached are some photos of my mutant baby. The first oddity that occurred was two plants sprouting from a single seed. After week one, a single, cone-like leaf began to emerge after the first set of leaves. The full development of this cone-like leaf was in line with what would normally be the second set of leaves and the signal to begin adding feed. I decided to continue watering with plain water for another week.

    Here is when the second oddity occured... the second set of leaves was actually two sets, arising from between the first alongside the strange, cone-shaped leaf I mentioned earlier.

    I have attached pictures of its progress so far. If anyone can advise why this happens, or how to manage it, I would appreciate it.

    Thanks in advance!
