A tale of two plants.
Th first flowers every year, sometimes one or two but this year five blooms.
The flowers are about 3" (7.5cm) across.
They last for about 4 days and crumple within 2.
The other is a plant I've had for about 7 years.
According to the book it will only flower when about 3ft (metre) tall.
It tried twice this year and this week it finally succeeded.
The bloom about 1" (2.5cm) across only comes out at dusk and it only lasts one night.
I'm delighted to get them.
Both shot with the EM-1X, the first with the 12-100 and the second with the 60mm Macro.
Both shot with focus bracketing (10 shots) and the second with the STF-8 twin flash.
Tripod and cable release.
