D. scorpioides flower

[Est]

Well, I noticed that one of the buds was open on one of my D. scorpioides and decided to give my macro a shot and snap a few pics. Anyhoo, here we are:

Good work, macrophotography is a lot of fun isn't it! I would say this is the pink form of this species

I need a personal photographer. Can ya pay a visit to the east coast?

Hi Est, Is that one you got from me? If it is, you can thank Vic Brown. He sent the gemmae to me December 2002. Just before the Postal service got anal about plant material from outside the USA. I took a pic of mine this mornig. I'll get it posted later.

And here's a lousy pic of the Vic Brown plants, via BCK, 2.5 years ago. It seems that 1/3 of my pics have a D. binata meandering in them. That also came from BCK.

Managed to find a decent pic out of the ones I took this morning. The others were too blurry to post. This one's a bit dark for my liking but at least the color on the flower isn't bleached out by too much light.

Anyone out there growing the white flowered form?

You mean an all-expense-payed trip to the east coast? Why sure! How generous of you, Jim!

Oh well, I still need to get my camera issues sorted out. I sent it in for repairs, got it back with the problem fixed but some HUGE scratches on the camera, and now a week later the problem is back again, too! So I'm in communication with the... folks... who did the "repairs." If I'm ever on the east coast, I'll take some pics for ya, Jim!

Actually, I think I originally got these gemmae from Bob Z. However, I'm hoping that the new gemmae that I got from you will all sprout and grow for me! We finally got a sunny day today, so a bit more light should help coax them awake! And if that doesn't, then I'm going to beat them in to germination.

Then you can meet Jonathan, your clone!

Just so long as we keep it clear- he's MY close, not the other way around. Tell him he may as well sleep for the next ten years.

PS Stock up on macaroni.
