[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
Aristolochia is a large plant genus with over 500 species. Collectively known as birthworts, pipevines or Dutchman's pipes, they are the namesake of the family (Aristolochiaceae). The common names "Dutchman's Pipe" and "Pipevine" (e.g. Common Pipevine, A. durior) are an allusion to old-fashioned meerschaum pipes at one time common in the Netherlands and Northern Germany. These flowers have a specialized pollination mechanism. The plants are aromatic and their strong scent attracts insects. The inner part of the perianth tube is covered with hairs, acting as a fly-trap. These hairs then wither to release the fly, covered with pollen.



Zaletą kokornaka są duże liście i fakt, że może rosnąć w cieniu. Ale między liśćmi skrywają się interesujące kwiaty.

Osobliwy ten kwiat, jego ksztalt i kolor... dobra prezentacja

Hello Malgorzata,

I like the light, and admire the fine details in this plant unknown to me!
A well composed presentation, and the macro work is well done, as the DoF isolates the subject well...
Attractive fresh colours!

Greetings,
