I have the same thing starting on my 20 yr old. It's amazing! She's definitely too big for my house and is outside yr round. I have already learned that this is not the exception for these plants to do this. It's an honor to have a plant that long I have it doing something very "mature".

Welcome, @Primanovakaolcom

If the top is healthy, you can just rub them off as they occur. They will definitely require energy the plant would otherwise devote to the top.
