@Lillie Fleur Interesting article and pretty flower. Thanks. 

Comment by Annie Thomas on July 13, 2012 at 10:02am

Lillie- Thanks for the link!  I love this type of story.  It makes me wonder how many people walked passed these flowers, and maybe even admired them, but it took someone with a sense of wonder (and the tools to find out) to take the time to discover them.

LF.  Cool flower.  It's neat to see there is still something new under the sun!

Evolution is alive and well in the plant kingdom.

weird trees.  I didn't think the ginkgo was weird although I love them and have 3 young ones in my yard.  The species is ancient but so is Monkey Puzzle and tree fern.  Anyway, cool.

Interesting article Write4U.  Thanks.

Comment by Joan Denoo on July 1, 2012 at 10:44pm

@Write4U, thanks for the graphic demonstration of plant orientation. It makes sense. 

Comment by Sentient Biped on July 1, 2012 at 10:00pm

Write4U, cool article!  I enjoyed reading it.  I had no idea how plants respond to gravity!

Best therapy in the world, Susan.
