It'll be worth monitoring this - I will next week - as if it fails to open it could well be C. cleistantha or closed fingers. One has been recorded previously though not listed in this BCNM site.

Doubtful that its C. cleistantha - looks more like a bud about to open. In C. cleistantha the outside is greenish with numerous sessile glands and ovary is quite swollen at this stage. Needs another check in a few days.
