So it would be okay to have it going side ways, duh. <br />And yes, it is a bud, I have a much bigger one and was searching to see it is a fruit or not, so that is how I landed here. Will post it this week, come by and see it when you have time. :-)Self Sagacityhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14404148735941132540noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7962737753774873161.post-24307427251176658422011-10-06T21:34:44.025-07:002011-10-06T21:34:44.025-07:00good observation! you're right I've only s...good observation! you're right I've only seen them form on the sides.JTrinhhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11919924146615350515noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7962737753774873161.post-49809780672658360882011-08-26T12:42:37.891-07:002011-08-26T12:42:37.891-07:00The flower buds don't form on the tip, but rat...The flower buds don't form on the tip, but rather on the sides.

It sure tricked me. It was probably a flowerbud that realized it didn't quite have enough energy and became vegetative growth instead.JTrinhhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11919924146615350515noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7962737753774873161.post-5949196517843053522011-08-20T13:21:00.361-07:002011-08-20T13:21:00.361-07:00thanks texasguava.
