How Bout a 'Color' thread?

Even Archonto. Cunningh. Illawarra shows off a little  tinge in red.

My 5 mt tall Illawarra, planted in the ground has never shown such colour.

I can't believe I got 2 of these for $5. 

 

And I see these listed on eBay and Etsy for like $150 and I put it in a Wendys cup that still has a masking tape label from a banana on the side. This truly is a classy operation down here.

Areca vestaria sp.

I think this dypsis louvelli classifys as a bit of colour!

As the sun fell lower in the sky, something red was lit up toward the east. What could it be?

Grabbed the phone and went to see. A sight I have never witnessed before, the unveiling of a fresh inflorescence of Loxococcus rupicola -- and wow, was it ever RED! Below you can see what caught my eye.

Closer -- evidently I was disturbing a pair of Madagascar geckos -- can you find them?

Below you can see the formed seeds on another Loxococcus rupicola.

I sometimes have trouble remembering the name of this palm. My trick is to start with Coca-cola and then it falls into place.
