They take years and years to open, Adenium buds do. And it's so hard to not pull on them, even tho' we know they will tear. I blow on them, sometimes that helps them along when they are starting to open. But forcing them too much always backfires. A little help is fine, and good. But force is rewarded with rips and ugly bruises. Wow!
What colors are you hoping for?
