Description
One of the treats of photographing in a Botanical house is finding about every weird and unusual plant there is....This is NO exception. I believe this to be a tobacco plant, I maybe be wrong, they are almost calla lily looking in their leaves, and they have the most unusual look of any plant I've seen in there. If anybody knows this not to be a tobacco plant please let me know what it is. I should look at all the little latin names when I am photographing and write it down.

Definetly not Tobacco(at least none that I have seen). I do alot of my outdoor model shoots in tobacco fields.
i dont know a thing about this plant, but i think not a tobacco. anyway great photo syyd. i like the form and colour tone. however the shadows on the back look too busy, perhaps shorter DOF?
Thanks Ray...good idea.....I like the fleshy tones on this stamen?? if thats it, against the white shiny wet leaves....back looks busy....got to work on that....I am forcing myself to do color images as my tendency is to opt for sepia all the time....so this is new for me, and I appreciate the help!
it's a beautiful shot of an Anthurium flower.They grow in Hawaii
bonbon, I knew it looked familiar! I kept wanting to suggest that it was a "Jack in the Pulpit", which grows wild around here, but I knew that wasn't right. It seemed more like a tropical flower. Syyd, nice shot. The shiny, waxxy texture is interesting. Looks like a plant that might grow in a Krel rock garden!
Definately Anthurium. Commonly known as the "Paradise Plant", and also has a phalic connotation in some societies.
Beautiful Syyd!
I think it is a peace lilly.
It is for my a completely unknown plant, but the interesting thing that she has it is the shine of their leaf, a very good picture.
hehe, am I the only pervert here, or does it remind fallos? And, dearest Sydder, fantastic piece again. In middle of snow, its nice to have reminder from summer.
