Please don�t be too disappointed! One of the common names for the lovely colchicum autumnale is Naked Lady because it is the only flowering bulb to bloom while dormant, ergo magical, before leaves sprout, ergo naked of leaves; poisonous, because the flowers contain colchicine, which is highly toxic except in tiny medicinal doses for gout.
I do apologize for the sensationalist title, and I hope once you look at these beautiful flowers you�ll consider forgiving me (the leaves you see are of other plants, apparently attempting to protect the ladies� modesty).The more common names for this Fall-bloomer (oops there I go again...) are Autumn Crocus and Meadow Saffron. But it is not of the crocus genus, but of the colchicum, and it contains no saffron, but colchicine. Lots of misleading words and phrases here, but perhaps mild compared to what we�re experiencing in advertising, especially the political variety these days...

""Flowers have immediate and long-term (positive) effects on emotional reactions, mood, social behaviors and even memory for both males and females."" ~Evolutionary Psychology-2005.3:104 ""The sight of a flower is as marvellous as the vision of God."" ~Nisargadatta Maharaj Byron Varvarigos fine art -- 'Photography To Lighten The Heart' I love the beauty of nature and enjoy trying to capture 'snapshots' of it and sharing them.

Hahaha... you had your "safe filter" come on for the title "naked" ladies. I was wondering what that would be about since you have flowers in this folder. :) I love Crocus (I wish they grew in Southern California for more than 5 minutes). Wonderful shot and amazingly humorous title. v.
Byron Varvarigos replied:
Thanks much, Angela glad you enjoyed my frivolity!: ) Colchicum might do a little better in Socal than the crocus genus?
