Hippeastrum Emerald.

Another pot plant from Palmers Gardenworld Rotorua.

Hippeastrum Emerald.

A dangling tangle of stamens and a style with its delicate stigma unravel slowly and slide free. Don’t blink; you can observe grey anthers turn yellow as they spill pollen grains.

Nature didn’t need a colour wheel to select complementary colours.

Myriads of red vermillion dots applied Pointillism style on an emerald background to create a stunning effect.

Super Symetry.

Anthers swivel to hang vertically.
