Seeking photos
Hello, gang! I'm working on an article on members of the Rhodoclamys for issue #2 of the magazine (don't worry you haven't missed #1 yet-I'm just working ahead) and am looking for good photos of the following species, especially if you have photos of their blooms. Of course, if you give me permission to use your photo, you'll be credited in the magazine.
M. basjoo, dasycarpa (velutina), aurantiaca, zebrina, mannii, siamensis ('Thai Gold), ornata (any cultivar), sikkimensis, and itinerans. If you can think of others please feel free to suggest. My goal in this article is not to do an exhaustive listing of all members of the Rhodoclayms, but mainly the ones most commonly grown. Thanks! |

Re: Seeking photos
Austin,
I love the pics you posted of your basjoo and the dasycarpa. Do you have any without the time-date stamp on them? I'd like to use them in my next article. I'll check out your photobucket acct. when I get time. |

Re: Seeking photos
Great! I'm glad that you're interested in my photos. Unfortunately, I don't have any pics without the date stamp, but they are high resolution, and I bet we could crop that out on most of the pics without cutting off the portion of interest. There's a lot more in Photobucket too so please check that out. Just tell me which ones you like, and I'll crop them using the high resolution pics on my computer. Thanks.

Re: Seeking photos
Brent - no problem with time/date. I have programs to remove those.
