Definitely! I grow a very limited number of plants, but the VFT
is one of them. I consistently "groom" them by getting rid of the
blackened leaves with scissors and a tweezers. It is not only more
attractive, but it also helps to prevent fungus that can attack the
decaying leaves.
Correct me if I am wrong here anyone.
Take care and keep on growing,
