Description

Again the Solandra maxima, known as Golden Chalice Vine, Cup of Gold or Hawaiian Lily. It has very large yellow flowers and glossy leaves. The bud spilts apart to form the five petals of the flower. On the bottom right the light line is where an old bloom has fallen from the vine. Smile! Clive

Yes, I agree with Meisiekind, you have shown us the full phase of the plant in one gorgeous photo. Amazing. It's a rather ingenious way it evolves too. Thanks for showing me this, I've never heard of it before. Beautiful capture.
