Coel. speciosa

[Brenda Aarts]

Hi all, here is one of my very regular bloomers, and I love it. Very healthy plant, but this bloom is a bit wrinkly and rumpled...just wondering it is probably due to drying out too much at some point in time? Hopefully its subsequent blooms will be normal...or as normal as this flower can be! Thanks for your input.

Anyone know how to move this to pests and disease...maybe in view of flowers deformity I should have posted there....wrinkled coel. speciosa. Thanks

aside from the slight ruffling of the top petal...the form is just ok...
I think its mechanical, but hopefully the other small buds would open in perfect form...
the leaves are clean and theres no spottings or blemish...the bulbs are plump not wrinkly...
no need to transfer this to pests and diseases...

Very nice, and different! I don't grow these so don't have any input as to the wrinkling.

I was advised by a friend that the flower bud could have used more humidity while developing....and that it would be a good idea to slightly mist whole plant so that future buds develope properly. Will give it a try..can't hurt as long as its dry by night time.
