Can't complete the first transition challenge, what am I doing wrong?

I'm stuck at the first transition challenge, this is the task:

Using the prefix for WebKit-based browsers, create a transition for the border-radius property of .box. Give the transition a duration of 2 seconds, a delay of 1 second, and a timing function that maintains a linear motion.

What am I doing wrong? I've tried everything and nothing works, the transition seems to work fine. any help would be awesome!

<body>
    <div class="box"></div>
</body>
</html>
style.css 
/* Complete the challenge by writing CSS below */

.box {
    border-radius: 15px;
    background: #4682B4;
  -webkit-transition: 2s, linear, 1s;
 }

.box:hover {
    background: #F08080;
    border-radius: 50%;
}

I've got it! :)

You need to specify te property you want to transition, so for the challenge you need

  -webkit-transition: border-radius 2s linear 1s;

You don't need to separate them with comma's either. :-)

Have to say I'm a little baffled by this myself. Maybe someone else can come in with the correct response but I do believe you've put the values in the correct order but it's been a while since I've done this challenge. I've tried every combination I can think of too, might this be a bug? :-)

I have tried this way too:

-webkit-transition-duration: 2s; -webkit-transition-delay: 1s; -webkit-transition-timing-function: linear;

Thank you for your answer Jonathan =) I hope that someone can confirm if it is a bug.

Wow thank you so much! It wasn't clear for me to specify the property, I didn't get that, too often I overlook details like that! Thank you so much for taking your time to help me, I really appreciate it. I was really frustrated !
