| That's not a bad photo for one taken through a phone!
Nice plant too... Love the contrast between the purple of the flower and the grey-green of the plant itself. |

| Thanks guys. glad you all like it. | Lachy wrote: | | That's not a bad photo for one taken through a phone! |
Yeah it does a good job (SonyE 810i) has macro, and it's just easier than getting my big camera. It's an awesome puprle up close. it has that glittery sheen about the petals.
HN: I cant take all the credit I was lucky enough to buy it from someone, Its prob around 4-5yrs old I suspect. But Id have to get in contact with him to find out the age. I've had it a little over 6 months. From what i can tell is say it's prob the first or second flowering. Now I just need to get some seeds. I have another turb in flower im going to cross with and hope to get some sucess.
