Strange Bud Formation

Post by Grumpy Toad »

Stopped by my friend's house and checked his latest. I saw this crazy bud on the plant. I've seen photos before but first time in person.

That is weird. Do all the buds on that plant look that way or just that one?

Just the one bud all the other are beauties. It's called a Polyploid.

Wow! Very interesting. I've never even heard of a Polyploid. Thanks for the info and the very cool picture of it.
