Flower of the Day – December 5 – Dirty White Ixia.

Back in September i posted a couple of shots of my beautiful African ‘Corn Daisies’ or Giant Ixia as they bloomed.

I did not post all of the ones i took… particularly not the Dirty ones.

(Click on the pics to open in a new window and click again to see full size detail) 🙂‘Dirty’ Ixia. I believe the heat of the sun has burned the yellow pollen falling from the stamen into black spots on each petal!

A ‘cleaner’ version. 😉

A ‘still life’ indoor shot of some Ixia and freesias in a vase near the very end of their ‘still’ life. The ‘crown’ is the last white Ixia standing; the freesia are the white ‘waterfall’ on the right and the bottom ones are Cream and Pink Ixia:-)
