    Great shots. The cardboard was a good idea! I love this plant too. They have a white variety that is just as tough and large. Look for it at your garden center. I have both red and white. This is a photo from the old Minolta DiMAGE 5 I had. The white variety.

    Good job
    They came out really well, Daniel.

    Wish I had thought of that when I photographed some at my mom's last May when I was visiting.

    A very neat plant! I'm going to get some for my yard. I have something similar, but not the same thing. They are not blooming yet. Good idea with the black background, I've done that too.
