    You can put the pics in something like PhotoBucket which is free to sign up for and then you can link to them by using the HTML code.....pretty easy really.

    What I really love from your part of the world is Dracontium which is a type of aroid.

    Good luck uploading the pics :o) Dan

    Dale thanks, unfortunately I do not know the Dracontium in my area.

    These are some of hippeastrum I have:

    Hippeastrum puniceum?

    {{gwi:430469}}

    I do not know the name of this potential hybrid

    This is another unidentified, are some bulbs I picked up at a mountain so called hippeastrum the Andes.

    do not like my hippeastrum?
    is that the quality of the photos is not good but my camera is not enough for most.

    I have some hybrid seeds and bulbs of species to change.

    Greetings.

    I like your wild hippeastrums. It would be exciting to see such pretty flowers blooming wild in nature.

    Your Hippies are beautiful...maybe it was the line-up of scantily clad beauties at the top of your photo hosting site......? Anyway, keep posting your beautiful flowers...

    Thank you all for your comments and sorry but we needed scolding jajaja

    I find these bulbs grow in the mountains and pick them up when they go to plant coffee. those planted on my farm from being destroyed.

    Greetings to everyone.

    Hello friends. I am very happy with my h. papilio will flourish. is the second time in two months. it is normal for two rods flower?. The first time the rod is not enough but if you grew the flowers opened.

    Thanks for your time....

    Hi Jhonatan, While I am not able to send you any bulbs I have a large number of H. striatum about to bloom so will try to cross pollinate and assuming I get seed I am more than happy to send you a large quantity for you to grow and pass along to others that like them. It would be wonderful to see pics of some of your other species :o) Dan

    Hi, I do think it is quite normal for a healthy Papilio like yours to send up more than one flower scape.. Enyoy the flowers...and we'd enjoy seeing them when they bloom...

    Donna. thanks but there is a problem with its blooms, which is that the rod does not grow high enough.

    Dan I would love to have that kind, in fact most of the hippe I have are from seed, grow it is very nice from the beginning.

    I have several species but few pictures of flowers, here are some.

    crinum

    Nice Crinum!! I will make sure I cross pollinate to get seed to send you. I wish I had known earlier this year as I had seed from a few different Crinum I could have sent as well :o) Dan

    I never thought I would one day have this hippe here in Colombia. I am very happy.

    Jhonatan,

    They are beautiful and you have a nice looking seed pod too! You will have more beautiful flowers before too long. Did you pollinate the Papilio with another flower or use Papilio pollen?
