Re: April 2015 In the Pink
Lots of desirable plants on display. Liz M even entered a cactus flower photo, not just nicely grown succulents (I did like that agavoides-like Echeveria). I thought there might have been more pink foliage plants, but certainly plenty of pink cactus flowers. Several photos I considered, but decided to choose Rod Smith's Echinocereus coccineus. 'Coccineus' is somewhat misleading for this colour flower; is it SB236 Rod? I liked the clear shot showing the pink flowers and bud, but also the lighting on the spines, an excellent plant portrait.
So over to you for May's topic, Rod.
