  Thank you. I had to adjust the lighting a bit, as this was taken on a dark corner of my front porch. This is a first for me! I'd never even heard of this genus! Posted 4 years ago

      Can't be, I'm not "Common". Henriette keeps telling me I'm very rare, but unsure what she means by it. Posted 4 years ago
