and here are the red ones, separated out

Interesting to discover that the colour of the petals contributes to faster decay.
Best wishes, Pete.

  Well, it would seem to be the case, Pete, but what do I know?

    I knew the voice of reason would appear…looking at my first images, they might perhaps have been first

Hey, they’re just trying to give you what you want–material for photos of decay! 🙂 You should be thanking them for not making you wait longer.
