  1. It seems this flower simply always looks fantastic! Posted 5 years ago
    1. yes: it's so delicate and lovely!
      both Ori & I love it, and this is why though it's quite rare - we both posted pictures of it :-)

  2. Beautiful! It looks like there are some tiny insects or eggs on the green part to the left! Posted 5 years ago
    1. I know, I tried guessing whose eggs are they -
      it's either some flower-bug of the Heteroptera suborder, or possibly Utetheisa pulchella moth - because the Trichodesma is its host plant.
