Photo of Blue Picotee - Getting Back To Normal?

I have about 5 more buds to go to where I get to the point where buds were not sprayed with Messenger. It is clear that the deformations occur in varying degrees according to the maturity of the bud when it was sprayed. On the other hand, since Messenger is systemic, it may have somewhat of an affect on buds not even formed yet but probably with much less deformity. In the picture, you can see the bottom petals are beginning to connect again. The top two petals are still separated.

I am still not 100% sure that Messenger was the cause since the Min-Bar was sprayed as well and has perfectly normal flowers. Again, if the Blue Picotee does indeed get back to normal, I will try and see if I can duplicate the deformity.
