Precocious flowering

[sastry]

Hi
I have crossed a Dendrobium species with another hybrid and was cultured in Dec 19. By june 20, we have observed precocious flowering in one seedling only and the remaining seedlings are normal. Any comments and observations on this phenomenon is welcome. This is a seedling from Seed culture.
Thank you

But - jokes aside ------ that is awesome! Thanks for sharing those photos of the young seedling producing that flower! This kind of thing is a very rare occurrence indeed.

Wow, that's pretty weird to look at. Nice looking flower too, what is the cross?

I wonder if this happens in nature as well?

id be interested to see if the plant dies after the bloom...like an odd attempt to put all it's efforts into propagating before death.

it is weird to see. like a pregnant toddler
