Narcissus rupicola subsp. marvieri.

[Jan Jeddeloh]

Narcissus jonquilla var. henriquesii (or whatever the taxonomists are calling it today) is blooming in my greenhouse.  I only wish it was possible to photograph the wonderful scent. I've been trying to pollinate the flowers with a cotton swab so maybe I'll get lucky and get some seed.

Let's try again on the picture.  It wasn't rotates in Photos on my Mac.

[Maggi Young]

I have rotated your photos for you, Jan.  I refer you to this post :

 Re: Viewing and Posting pictures on the Forum

There have been some problems for folks posting pictures from their i-pads or smart phones -  these are appearing either sideways or upside down  when loaded to the forum.

It 's a question of how the pix were first  saved I think.  Not sure, since I don't  use an i-pad or camera phone, so I consulted Ian about this.

He says  if the pix are flipped in the device  or as you resize them ( to make them display the right way up as you see them) then they will rotate when posted here, back to the original orientation.  If you don't flip them they'll be  correct here in the first place.
