I agree with Mr. Oudhia's reference to simplicity. Let the format not be a compulsion. I am an amateur and would find it difficult to adhere to the format (what on earth is a bract?) which may prevent me from posting flowers for identification lest I get a reprimand. However, I do appreciate that such details are a must for accurate identification and would accept if I am told that identification is not possible if details are lacking. We are raising the bar but everybody cannot jump that high! Cheers, Kiran Srivastava Mumbai On 2/19/10, Pankaj Oudhia <[email protected]> wrote: > > Thanks Garg ji for this message.
