Re: [efloraofindia:239183] Re: flower I.D. needed

2016-02-01 Thread Ushadi Micromini
in my original reply to Stephen on 29th Jan 2016 i had  not noticed that
our own address was not on the cc list  sorry
so here is my msg as sent to Stephen then...
I quote
"
Stephen
Its a stylized Lotus
Not very accurate is it?

Yet the three lower leaves are more or less commonly seen in the Rangoli
arts where  a lotus is depicted every morning outside of homes or on
special occasions.  Though the upper part of the flower only shows the
central part of the rangoli motif, i imagine its abbreviated in a piece of
jewelry.

Also the central upper part seems to be conveying the mangal ghat...
usually a sacred vessel of that shape.

But since its a piece of jewelry i guess its just a  lotus, in its stylized
form.


the leaves leave a lot to be desired in the accuracy rating too...

but that's the artist's prerogative to create a pleasing  motif.

You'll see such examples of stylized flowers a plenty in most of the inlays
too  Taj mahal i mean.

*Since you are the curator*, I would be very interested to know how you
catalogue this piece ultimately .  Even if for your museum's internal
records.

Kalanchoe blossfeldiana has flowers with four petals only

this is a cultivar with double flowers or almost multiple layers of petals
reminiscent of minaiture roses
nursery trade forces these massive flowering to make them attractive
comes in many colored flowers including even a yucky green flower ( see
this utube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EtK7Ad_HKNU)

there is a cultivar called CALANDIVA series popular in houseplant shops
selling with these massive flowers at top lasting a few weeks  once you
bring them home... then just leaves if you are lucky to over summer
them getting leggy  uninteresting and almost no flowers in the indian
urban  setting

second flowering is difficult unless you know exactly how and have
excperimented a lot.  I should know i aghve brought
 lot of these home for late fall and early winter to cheer up the dreary
winter blahs

bottom line
this is Kalanchoe blossfeldiana CALANDIVA (registered) series .

Re: [efloraofindia:239193] Re: Quercus semecarpifolia ABJAN01/15

2016-02-01 Thread ashwini
Thank you Ushadi. It would be interesting to know why some trees/plants evolved 
that way. If I am not wrong some other oaks such as Holm Oak (Q. ilex) also 
have leaves that are either entire or spiky. Someone told me the other day that 
the European Holly too has toothed leaves lower and less spiky leaves higher up 
on the tree.

I will try and find out why that is so. But if you find out before me, please 
share.

Regards,
Ashwini
