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.

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.
