Your buds look great. You know Doris, in the late summer into Sept. most people report incredbile blooms. So the best is yet to come!!

The calyx is yellow which is fine. Leave it be. Reach up and gently squeeze the top of the cayx where the peduncle joins it. Just a gentle squeeze. See if the hard nub there feels bigger than 2 pencil erasers together. LOL. At the least feel it so when you feel it in a few days you will be able to tell if it has grown. I think you may have a pod there Doris. Good show!!

I stole this pic when I first joined Dave's. This picture is one Brugcrazy, Jeanne made.
