We're having a heat wave. 107ยบ heat index with some sticky wet humidity! The Plumies ought to be loving it! The other two flowers half way opened today. I think I will get some Lookers by tomorrow.

Yeah that false inflo nub was the one I have been eying for a long time hoping it was more inflo. It took a month before I could tell it wasn't going to do anything but be a nub! Will it just stay being a nub? or will something spring out of it and surprise me? Odd looking thing! The branch that it is on is one of two other small conjoined trees. The big flowering tree shades over it quite a bit. I turn the tree a lot hoping some sun will get to it. Seeing how the conjoined sisters are on opposite sides of the big tree, that is a lot of spinning around!

@Bubbles. I have been fertilizing regularly, every week-10 days, something that has gotten by me in previous years. I think that has made all the difference to the point I think it might help them bloom better next year?
