Acis query

Maggy, I've never used this code; what should I put after [ Attachment Invalid Or Does Not Exist ] ??  my image link ?
thank's,
Fred

 To make a post with photos, uploaded from your computer files rather than from an outside picture hosting site..... once you have the text box there, write your text then click on "Additional Options"  at the bottom left of the page..... a new ea will appear with "ATTACH".............browse (more attachments)
To load the first picture, click on "Browse" and select the photo file from where you have it saved on your computer, then repeat for as many pictures as you have, up to ten each post.
 
You can add the photos up to ten at a time ... either at the end of your post, or by entering this code where you want the photo in your text   (attachthumb=1)... name of the plant....
 (attachthumb=2) ...... comment or name..........and so on. Obviously I have had to use () brackets in the previous example because otherwise the system will give the fault message if I use the Square brackets and do not upload any photos!
Hope this helps, Fred.

Acis rosea

Thanks, Fred! All your photos are very beautiful; it is just that this method makes life easier for some readers and it is good to make the Forum as accessible as possible !

I understand Maggy,
and it's easier for me too to not have to upload them before through another website

 Excellent, Fred... we have the proverbial win-win situation  then, eh?!! 

[Sinchets]

Thank you both for working through that- it is less draining on our bandwidth and we don't miss out on any great pics 
Do you have pics of white Scilla autumnalis, Fred. We were looking through some large populations yesterday, but only found variations from pale blue to reddish purple.

Fred,
Nice photo of the two species blooming together side by side.
Can you tell at what altitudes you have seen Acis rosea growing?

[Hans J]

Oron ,

I have also found by a earlier trip to Corsica this Acis rosea ( also growing with Scilla ) - I found four populations :

two near the sea
two inside of the island on a altitude 130m + 400m

please look for the stones on Fred's pic - it is granit !
the PH value is under 6,0

The most other Acis grows on calcy soil ....

I hope this helps you a bit
Hans

[Oron Peri]

Hans,
Thank you very much for the detailed information, and the PH.

....Another one for my 'wish list'..

[Hans J]

Oron - no problem !

Also no problem with your wish .....
Please write me a PM

Sinchets, white form is on page 1 
Oron, I've found this Acis rosea between 1.5 and 10 m above sea level !!
In granit, yes !!
and they also should receive lot of salt water !

Thanks Fred

So its a tough one behind this appearance...

I have allready the salt, now i only need the bulbs

[Sinchets]

Thanks, Fred.
Hans, your comments made me think- we have been travelling around and so far have only seen Scilla autumnalis on non-calcareous rocks. Is this a feature throughout its range does anyone know?

[Hans J]

Simon ,

I have seen often on my travels Scilla autumnalis ....I think this plants are indifferent ( they grows on calcy or not calcy ground )
P.e. I saw a lot on Corsica ( granit ) ,Sardinia ( calcy ) , Crete ( calcy ), Cyprus ( calcy )....
