kinrokaku is always the first to flower.

Gojofukurin. Flowers are about half the size of those of Kinrokaku. Fragrance is also much weaker than K. but very cute little plant.

More on the way...

Stunning plants you have there. Plz explain your culture as what I'm doing isn't working. TY

That picture is a few days old.

It looks like they are about to pop open any time now.
I bet tonight or tomorrow.

Please tell me what you are doing and what you mean by it's not working.
I could better help then, if at all.

Absolutely beautiful! I am a new Neofinetia grower and every flower is exciting to me! I have a few blooming and others very close to opening, any day now. So exciting!

I hope you will continue to post pictures as yours open, your plants are gorgeous. Is the bean leaf in bud, a Kuroshinju? Thank you for sharing with us.

The small one is Kasen, which is slightly larger than Kuroshinju.

I pollinated the flowers on Gojo, and all the flowered began to yellow the next day, then by third day, they are all wilted.
Quite fast reaction!
