Odd Tunilla flower
No, it's not another post about T. chilensis with stigma bits on the anthers but a fan-shaped bud I noticed a while ago on an otherwise nondescript plant. Cristate-ish flowers are something I see from time to time.

Very weird, and very interesting. I wander what the flower will look like.
