Got this one in low bud, so I can't take credit for anything but not killing it. Doesn't look like it's going to be very big, but it should have good color.

May surprise you and ENLARGE. : )

You know that's inviting the'knock-it-off-the-shelf' jinx, right?

 

[tnyr5]

It's not on a shelf lol.

 

[NYEric]

Haha! Now it's doomed!

 

[tnyr5]

getting there

 

[mrhappyrotter]

I like it. Mine opened up not that long ago. If my plant is any indication, yes, they continue to expand in size a surprising amount, especially compared to the size of the bud when they first start opening.

Looking good

 

[Paphman910]

Nice!

 

[SlipperFan]

Looking promising!

Oh my, if that bloom expands any more, it'll fill up my entire screen
and I won't be able to see it at all. I am removing Eric's whammy...
it's safe now. Can't wait to see the flower completely open.

 

[tnyr5]

Lol it had better expand a whole lot more if it wants to live.

 

[NYEric]

Sounds like it wants to move to NYC!

[Ozpaph]

it cooks as well.........................amazing!

 

[gnathaniel]

Very nice color! You can send it me if you don't want it.

 

[tnyr5]

seems to be done opening. NS 8.2cm, Petals 3.3 cm x 4.5 cm, Dorsal 3 cm. Kinda cupped.

 

[SlipperFan]

Maybe a little cupped, but a beautiful flower, and nice and symmetrical.

 

[tnyr5]

Yeah, I'll give it another chance. Are my pics getting any better, Dot? (I'm an idiot at pic-taking lol)
