Blooms on Chocolate Stripes

[AZGardener]

Hi everyone,
I was just watering and noticed all of these big and small blooms all on one plant. Does this mean something or nothing? Lol Maybe they are just little blooms that will be turning into larger ones?? This is Chocolate Stripes. Thanks!!

Picture.... lol!!

That is a healthy plant, AZG.

I have not grown that variety but I think generally bigger blooms may produce bigger fruits.

plse keep us updated.

That's what I was thinking too Gardneer! But when I saw the big blooms and the tiny blooms it made me wonder... I haven't grown this variety yet so we shall see!

For me Chocolate Stripes makes a lot of megablooms earlier in the season.

Interesting! Wonder why?

In my experience all megablooms and catfaces happen early in the season. I have seen them on Cherokee Purple, Brandywine and Silvery Fir Tree .

I get them all season long, probably due to our freaky weather patterns but definitely most of them come in the spring.
