  1. That's beautiful! Will the buds below it take the same shape eventually? Posted 10 years ago
    1. I think the stamens have already dropped off of the blossoms below, the flowers tending to progress from the bottom of the stalk up in maturity. Eventually the little cups will fill with seeds. Posted 10 years ago, modified 10 years ago
