Lueddemanniana bud

Here is the thing that is literally testing my patience:



Every morning I check on it and hope that it is the day when it opens, but it never happens.
How large the bud should grow before opening? I don't know. It looks ready to me.



I hope it is worth waiting...

  1. It looks like it'll have decent colour and form! And the longer it takes, the bigger the flower!

    1. Great! I see the color, but had no idea that one can predict the form by the shape of the bud.

    2. You can take a general guess based on the shape of the bud. One that is long and narrow will probably end up having long and narrow tepals, while a short and fat bud will usually end up being fuller formed. However, reflexing or cupping can't really be predicted.
