Another odd ball

Passilfora 'Joan Marie' without anthers. I don't know if something ate them off or it was born without them, I suspect the latter.

Interesting things you've got going on. That is a beautiful bloom.

The bloom was fully open when I photographed it, so a bug could have eaten the tips however, I'm still inclined to think it just didn't form them. Yeah, I like this bloom, if only the plant would grow just a little faster, LOL. I guess I need to be careful what I wish for....
