    COSTA RICA CROTON WANDERINGS - BERMUDA RED OR OTHER???

    Thanks Anna… after reviewing Bermuda Red in the Wiki Photos I see that you’ve repeated the Close-up of the one in my garden. Did you mean to do this for some reason? I don’t want to sound redundant, but what great work you’ve done and continue doing with the Wiki Photos…thanks again! :)

    COSTA RICA CROTON WANDERINGS - BERMUDA RED OR OTHER???

    Hi Anna… it appears that my first attempt to send you the photo that you requested failed (the one that wouldn’t enlarge). Here is my second attempt at sending you the “full image”. Please let me know if you receive it in good order...

    COSTA RICA CROTON WANDERINGS - BERMUDA RED OR OTHER???

    Hi Anna, in answer to your questions..... All the photos were taken with my Sony Cyber-shot digital camera (DSC-HX200), as are all the pix I post on the Forum. I don’t understand why they won’t enlarge :( but I can re-send them if you wish?

    COSTA RICA CROTON WANDERINGS - BERMUDA RED OR OTHER???

    I run into the following posted variety (photos) on a semi-frequent basis and I suspect they are all the same cultivar… could it be Bermuda Red? Although listed, there are no photos of this plant in the WIKI Master Name List. A search on GOOGLE produced an interesting photo that look strikingly...

    COSTA RICA CROTON WANDERINGS - CODIAEUMS IN THE GARDEN DESIGN PART 03

    Hi Phil… thanks for your comments. When I first saw this cultivar “out in the wild” I thought it must be Cronstadt until I became aware of Dreadlocks which I understand is very similar. I have attached several photos of the same cultivar that I originally called Cronstadt (perhaps in error) and...

    COSTA RICA CROTON WANDERINGS - CODIAEUMS IN THE GARDEN DESIGN PART 03

    COUNTRY & CROTONS: Let’s go rural and leave the greater metropolitan area of San Jose’s Central Valley and indulge in one of my favorite pass-times. And that is… hunting for Croton images in Costa Rica’s smaller and provincial communities :).

    Hi "Native Son"... thanks for contributing your RE: Subject Photos to the above conversation. It certainly adds a little more depth to the post and I agree that sunlight helps to promote more color with these cultivars. :)

    COSTA RICA CROTON WANDERINGS - GLORIOSA SUPERBA

    When I was putting the GLORIOSA SUPERBA pictorial together I became aware there existed a lot of confusion with three varieties… Excellent, Gloriosa Superba and Inca, not to mention Corot. I have no problem with Inca or Corot because I’ve have never seen them “in person” therefore, no problem...

    I Love the smell of rain in the morning

    I thoroughly enjoyed your “rain” photographs, and yes, even the non-Crotons ones. Not complaining but I hope you can go back and re-take the small Croton garden pix that I couldn’t enlarge on my computer… the composition is beautiful! THANKS FOR POSTING !!! :GardenLove
