Crotonhead Porno

 

Oh my - so decadent

 

So Risque

 

Oh the Scandal - Croton Porn Continued

 

Nice pictures Ron! You got me thinking Centerfold would make a good name for a Croton. Do these "bunnies" come with names?

 

Super Ron...very much enjoyed! Names please.

 

Great stuff!

 

Simply naughty

 

... more croton porn

 

Thanks again Ron! Nothing like good Croton porn on a Sunday morning.

 

On no - the croton porn continues ...

 

taking a walk on the wild side

 

More Crotonhead erotica

 

And some more ...

 

the croton porn continues ...

 

a few more

 

Here are the last four images. I left the names off to test Ana's croton eye. She has developed her eye faster anyone else I've known.

Anyone can play. I'll calculate the % correct. Some are noids, they will not be counted against the %. There are a few duplicate cultivars, so don't be afraid to use a name more than once. Total photos: 43 The names will be revealed prior to the next croton tour.

 

Ron your plants look great. Very sexy! They are showing lots of reds, I wonder if it's a regional thing?

 

Toby - it may be several factors:

1 - many are growing in some heavy shade.
2 - most photos were taken in the late evening to just after sundown
3 - the flash may be manifesting colors recorded by the camera, not seen in natural light by the naked eye
4 - many of the images are of a single growth head or just a couple of leaves. This may not be indicative of the overall appearance of the plant.
5 - Possibly its just a Moose Land thing, all that composted oak leaves and heavy mulching sitting atop my limestone soil

 

Hmmm, I guess that no one wants to attempt the croton eye test ...

 

Ron,

I for one don't try to make too many ID's from looking at pictures here. It's just to dang hard. I say, dig up all these crotons and repot them and bring them by on Saturday. THEN.....you''ll get some ID's! Lol.

 

Alright, Ron, I'll bite.

How'd I'd do?

 

Wow Ana - most impressive! You guessed at 31, 24 correct for a 77.41% score!!!

The one you ID'd as King of Siam, I gave you credit. Its an unknown Thai hybrid I got from Mike Woolery. By the picture you could not tell. It does a few wierd things with the ends of the leaves. Honestly, I really don't know what it is.

You guessed at more than 31 but, some were yet to be ID'd plants from Dr. Brown's garden. There was one that is an unknown from the Ralph Davis estate. The unknowns were not held against your score.

All that work you've done on the Wiki sure has sharpened your croton eye. If you keep visiting alot of peoples gardens, you could become the next Bob Alonso at the rate your croton eye is developing

Outstanding!!!

 

Yay! I'm improving. But I did give two answers for several of those, and I studied those photos for a while. Anyway, I must be getting better, so I am encouraged. Thanks.

 

Hey, but you didn't tell me which ones were right! I need to learn here, Ron.

 

OK Ana - after all your hard work on the Wiki - you deserve the ID's. Not like all these sideline Joes, LOL

Croton #1 you ID'd as Kentucky vs. Excellent? It is Unknown #5 from Dr. Frank Brown's Garden. Nobody has been able to ID it so far - so this was not calculated in your score.
