Lots of spots!

 

[Wendy]

HUGE petals! Nice!

 

[murcielago]

Thank you. Yes it is a first flowering. Petals are huge, but unfortunately it isn't as round as I hope it would be.

Round petals only matters if that is what is important to you, I think your bellatulum is great!! Alot of people will throw away plants that don't have round & flat flower shape!!!

Hell has frozen over... this is twice I agree with Troy The round flat BS is a human desire projected onto a flower that grows in nature. This is a gorgeous example of bellatulum!
