Excellent flower! Ive never seen one that is that white! It must be nice to be in a country with purpuratas everywhere!

Mauro,
The photos you post are one of the true highlights of this forum! Thank you! And thanks for debunking the myth that L. purpurata is the national flower of Brazil. I've read many references that refer to it as such.

Thanks Ospylac! I'm glad tha you like my photos.
As for L. purpurata being the National flower of Brazil... well, many people here think the same. It would be nice if it was, but it is not!
