It flowered! A real nice looking "daisy" type flower. I'm very impressed by it. But the flowers are VERY short-lived. They are delicate, and almost melt away when they get wet. I've tried to pollinate several with a paintbrush. We'll hope it produces seeds.

Can any plant experts out there tell me what this thing is? It is formed before the flower forms.

Here are close-ups of the flower forming
