Howdy Everyone,
This is my first post to this forum. I have a small patio/container garden
here in Durham.
I mostly have rain lilies, surprise lilies and oxblood lilies. However, I
recently (about 2 weeks ago) bought a lovely Belamcanda chiniensis. It was
in bloom when I bought it, and I was worried that being transplanted might
kill the flowers. That doesn't seem to be the case, but...yesterday, when I
went out to look at the plant, I found that several of the flower buds
appeared shrunken and hard. There were also small white dots on the petals.
Can you all tell me, is the plant protesting being moved, or is something
eating it, and if so, how do I get rid of the culprit.
Thanks!
Patricia in Durham.

Patricia,

I googled Belamcanda simply because I never heard of it! You might try that
to see if someone else has reported the same symptoms.
