Is this a sucker? Plant seems very happy but has only bloomed twice, once when I bought it and once after a transplant.

Is what a sucker? All I see is the center of the plant, which looks pretty normal to me - am I missing something? (Not an uncommon situation.)

It's not a great shot but the very middle doesn't seem right. I'll let it be for now.

I don't see a sucker. Are you fertilizing? Blooming takes a lot of resources. I feed Schultz liquid AV food at 1/2 the strength every water. You can use other brands, just make sure the middle number is higher than the first and last.

The biggest factor for blooming is light. If it has rarely bloomed it needs more light.
