Wonderful delenatii.

Awesome. Nice plant and photo. My first del just opened. Let me pick your brain here (anyone jump in)-

How long do flowers last?
What is a good ns/petal width?
What's the best way to keep the blooms fresh?

Mine opened fully (took about one week or so to open up fully) on the 16th last month and now it is browning.
So for mine, it is about six weeks.

Somebody else answer the rest.

Sorry for the slow response Adam. That's about right, 6 weeks in the greenhouse. I haven't measured but these are over 3 inches, maybe 3.5.

Superb..
