LACPS Meeting Photos (IDs Needed Too)

[DrWurm]

This is going to take knowledge of many types of plants, carnivorous and non-carnivorous alike. Today, the LACPS met at the Huntington Botanical Gardens, and we toured the wonderful facilities. I took a lot of pictures of very cool plants, unfortunately, I don't have ID on a lot of them.

I'd like to get them all sorted out, so if you'd kindly take some time to look through this album and call out a few plants, I'd be grateful.

Hey Jason. Those shots you took are great! I left home late, and thus arrived pretty late to the meeting. I luckily made it a tad bit before the behind the scenes tour began. However, I didn't get around to see all the plants people brought to the meeting.


I hope you don't mind me posting some of my pictures here.

Wow, those are great pictures. And that's for the both of you.

The fifth bonsai is pretty funky.

The fifth bonsai is pretty funky.

If you look closely, you can see that the big trunk part is not part of the actual plant. Instead, the plant's trunk is carefully wrapped and conformed around the dead piece of wood, creating the illusion of a disproportional plant.
