More Shots

I did some photo shoots of my Tills over the weekend. The results came out nice and crisp. Now I have a dillema which is to keep out of so many photos!

Random Shots of My Tills.

Did some photo shoots over the weekend. Mostly are mounted plants om hanging wire.

What I like most of Tills is that they are fuss free and grow almost readily on anything, not like hanging potted plants that need soil to grow.

Some shots in no particular order.

T. ionantha Feugo

Colorful Neoregelias

I'll keep this simple. Perhaps it's me or us humans love to see colorful stuffs.

All these are selective complex hybrids by Grant Groves. They come in an array of colors from light pink to vivid purple. Medium size plant not exceeding 18" to the max. Love bright lights but not direct sunlight or they'll bleach out easily.

Here they are:

Some macro shots

Just few shots of flowers & leaf close-up.

T. bergeri

This is a highly vriable species. I must admit that. Although the appearance looks the same among themselves and with T. aeranthos but their flowers appeared differently. Usually they range from pale lilac to deep violet. It came from Southern Brazil to Northern Argentina region. A caulescent plant where it grow saxicolous up to 75 m alt. in its' natural habitat.

Some Curly Stuff

Due to the current dry and hot weather, most of my plants are showing signs of dehydration. Although they are watered daily I guess the water transpiration is greater than the amount received. Here are some photos showing curly leaves which will never happen in the wet monsoon season.
My xerographica hybrid.

Another softer leaf form.

I like this most. It's a concolor X streptophylla. Usually the leaves are erect and recurved inward toward the base of the plant.

Some photos along the way.

Some snap shots taken on my free time during the holidays.
