nip the second bud early and have one well displayed bigger flower.

Might be simpler. The reality is that neither of these species are true multi-florals hence the poor presentation. It is probably compounded by the bellatulum influence of short spikes.

Well I must say, you photograph it the only way possible then because it kicks bu&& in your picture! Next year wire the second bud in the opposite direction from the first. I know, its cheating but do it! (PS don't forget to remove the wire before showing it off:wink

I generally like to see both flowers from the one direction but your suggestion may be the best approach. At least they shouldn't get in each others way.

I agree with others, that's one of the nicest VMP, not that I've seen a lot, the shape is excellent! :drool::drool::drool:

if one were going to take it to judging, is this an option? I wouldn't think so but you're in Australia.

I like the pot. Where did you get it and what is it? I also love this cross.

Not at this time of year.

It is just a hollow log. I'm not sure of the wood type. It is not a Eucalypt. The plant itself is not growing in the log. I just put the pot inside. You could grow things inside though as it has drainage holes.
