Description
My setting on RAW with my Sony required very little manipulation on my part to create this "glowing" apparition.The creamy or white petals of the flower turn pink after 24 hours and shed within a week as the fertilized ovules of the ovary grow into a boll. It will take about 8 days between the opening of a flower on one fruiting branch and the opening of the bloom in the same position on the next higher fruiting branch. That’s known as vertical flowering. About 6 days pass between the appearance of two consecutive blooms on the same branch (horizontal flowering). ..SOURCE: Texas A&M AgriLife Research and Extension Center at San Angelo.
