It's been about 2 weeks since I took the 1st image I posted. This is today. The flower is looking kind of sad. Does this look normal? Does anyone know how to tell if it will fruit up by looking ?

It kind of looks like ours. The flower only blooms for a very short time and then dies out, so the flower dying like this seems normal to me.
I don't know if there's a way to tell if it will bear fruit except just waiting, which is probably not comforting.

That is the ugliest prettiest thing I have seen.

Not sure how much I trust the AI, but if no one else answers... Looks like it's drying out, so it should be fruiting

It is on the dry side....but not much. Ill wait a few days and see what happens
I do have 2 other little flowers starting on another stem too .... yippee

Are you relying on natural pollination or did you take a qtip to them?

I use qtips since most of my stuff is inside a screen to protect them from the iguanas
