I think this is open as far as it is going to. It's a beautiful flower with a great fragrance. I hope the inside unfurls a little as I can't seem to find the anthers or stigma.Will have to check it tomorrow.
Inside candida Dbl. White
Wow! That's a KEEPER, beautiful.
Gorgeous!
That's what mine looks like. Snow, the easiest way to pollinate is just before it's completely open, pry the inside apart, you can see the stigma, it sticks down a bit. I used a razor on the sides of a few of mine, but I don't like the way it makes them all poofie after I do that.
I can't wait till one of my dddddoubles bloom,heck,I can't wait for a bloom,any bloom!!!!
I like this one too. I would still like to have one that is hose in hose, but this is very pretty. Almost elegant looking. I also like the foliage on this one a lot.
wowie zowie This is a pretty one.
my flowers don't last but a minute on this. i took a just opened flower to try to pollinate, the next day the thing fell off. Glory's right, the humidity is hard on mine. hopefully this fall will be better.
Beau-ti-ful ~
Snow, its beautiful and I know the fragrance of the x candidas. Its one you can`t get enough of lol A am affraid, that Cala is right about slicing it with a razor to get to the anthers/ stigmunderneath from the middle of the flower and towards the edge it won`t be so visible :-)
What do you plan to cross it to?
Tonny, the only thing to cross it with now is Isabella. I'm hoping the other flowers open the same time as my EP and then I will use that.
