Allison Strohm-New Thread

[Shiva]

I've opened a new thread for my Allison Strohm (Holy splitting bud) now called officially Saint-Barth. Forgive the hair or spider silk strands, they are impossible to get rid off since they're floating in the air and will easily stick to a flower. So far, the petals have not twisted like the ''regular'' form.

A side view of the flower. There are three little hills on each side of the pouch. An interesting detail.

The green dorsal is a beautiful contrast to the pink of the petals and pouch.
