The person who marked no evidence of flowering was last active yesterday.
You could send them a PM or @ mention them in a comment, explaining that there is budding, and ask them to change the annotation.
I think this is intentional; at least it’s the way many other annotations work (which can be problematic from a data quality perspective).
That is, a plant could never have both “no evidence of flowering” and be “flower budding”, so the system won’t present the budding option for either the observer themselves or other users to add. Until the “no evidence of flowering” annotation is removed by the observer.
Similarly it’s not possible to downvote an animal as not being female and then also mark it as male.
True, it’s not a bug but a major inconsistency/annoyance and effectively locks people out from making fruit annotations. This is easily rectified, and would be clearer to the annotator, if the wording was changed to “No Evidence of Buds/Flowers/Fruit” !!
