bonitin, you were lucky to get such a good D. antarctica, and I would love some Begonia grandis! When L. duchartrei increases I will have to send some your way, it likes shade!

I did try to take some pics against a large Fatsia japonica, very few turned out, 2 fairly poor ones in fact. It was getting late, that can be better for whites but it was maybe too late, although the flash didn't go off. I did the close ones on macro which works well up to 15" away but it only focused on one flower.

The stem leans to one side too, and the flowers face in the same lean direction so I had to tilt the pot to get them face on. I might go out in the dark and try a night shot, risky though carrying the pot about in the dark. The lily actually looked good against the fatsia, I might put one either side of it.
