Boulder, we have a bud!!! and it's a female too


I've been peeking under leaves, only to see male blossoms for the past 4 weeks. What a disappointment too. I thought I saw 1 or 2 female blossoms but nothing was really happening with them. Then tonight, I found my first real female blossom and it actually looks like it might flower soon.

Here's hoping for some happy bees that know their pollination business when the flower opens.

I might actually be in the competition yet!


PS Neighbor Dave says there are always more male flowers than female ones.
