Yeah can't see the picture clearly enough to help. Have a look at this link. It will show the difference between male and female flowers. Cheers.

Basically a males (bulb thingy) is rounder and the females are more teardrop shape...I got a red dragon flowering too...Not sure what sex is it..Some are teardrop-like some are rounded

My campa is flowering now and I think it's a female !!

I want to breed pure campanulata so anyone got campanulata pollen pls let me know. If successful in collecting seeds, we'll split 50 / 50, thanks.

nice, what a coincident, if mine happens to be a male, I'm interested with the deal, how long does it take for the flower to open? mine have been around for about a week without the "opening ceremony"

do u have a picture of your flower so that I can do some simple comparison? thanks

I think my campa flower will be opening this week. Timing is very tight... I'll take a pic tomorrow to show you, C Way.

Kevyn,
Seed grown campa.... I think it's very rare !!! Most campa on the market are TC plants. I hope everything will go according to plan and manage to harvest viable seeds from this breeding.

Thanks a lot, what is the average timing for the flower to blossom after the bulb grows out? mine has been around 1 week plus but not opening
