Re: Echinocereus Blooms 2012
Your absolutely right about that Peter, it a pain in the neck to get the true colors on some shots, and Pink is one of them for sure, and dark Purple is one as well. Martin

Re: Echinocereus Blooms 2012
the purples overwhelm the camera and for some reason pinks come out too light. I dont know why, but whatever the case you have some nice ones

Do the Echinocereus bloom in the day time. Whenever I see pictures of them I never see pictures at night.
Re: Echinocereus Blooms 2012
They're all very nice but the 5th one is super

Do you share or sell. I would like to try some of those as landscape specimens.
Re: Echinocereus Blooms 2012
One of my favorite genera. Looking good!

Re: Echinocereus Blooms 2012
Some species seem to open at night - my Echinocereus gentryii only opens at night and is closed by c. 10am or so. But that certainly is the exception for the genus.martenfisher wrote:Do the Echinocereus bloom in the day time. Whenever I see pictures of them I never see pictures at night.
Wonderful photos of Echino's!!
Re: Echinocereus Blooms 2012
You have ably demonstrated why I am crackers about the hedgehog cacti.
Lovely flowers (and wonderful spines too).
