"Fasciation is a unique mutation that produces unusual flowers, but does it harm the plant? Find out the cause and what you should do...."
My notes: I think we’ve all seen mutations before in our flowers & plants. Is it harmful?
The answer:
"“Removing the affected stem is usually all that is needed.” However, it’s important to point out that Melinda mentions the unusual growth doesn’t hurt the plant, so it’s not necessary to remove it. “Keep an eye out for fasciations in the garden, take a picture, and see if the unique growth appears the following year,” she says."
