It started out flat ( last photo). The petals have been pushing out for the past 2 weeks but they remain flat and not opening up at all. The one next to it is also flowering and it looks like a normal flower. Any idea what's happening that makes it flat? TY!

It’s obviously a grower AND a shower 😅
Sometimes, things just happen. It’s nature.
You could be mis-timing when you are observing the opening/closing. These flowers open and close on a timed cycle….maybe four hours, maybe +/-. Time of day can vary also, typically within a window.
If you manipulated the anthers at any point, it can cause the petals to close up, and not fully open thereafter.
To add: There could be a genetic anomaly for this particular flower. So it could fall into the category of “it’s nature”.
