Similar Structures

I am still playing with the close-up feature on my new camera. Peering intently into the inner workings of the intimate lives of plants, some common structures are revealed.



















An unknown to me large Bromeliad. But these are the parts that are used to define species.




















African Iris, Dietes bicolor.

















Ti Leaf, Cordyline terminalis is a very regular December bloomer

















I can't really explain the dramatic color difference. Same clump of Portea petropolitana, same day, same time, different stalk six inches away.















They remind me of those websites as graphs toy.
