Erysimum kotschyanum (Kotschy Erysimum, Dwarf Alpine Wallflower) #2

Dear Friends, two days ago I have dedicated a capture of this beautiful montan flower to my two beloved sisters, Jane MAGEN (jaycee) & Leyla AHMET (yasemin). Here's another shot of this alpine beauty, but this time a bit closer in, and Of course I am dedicating this to my big Sisters once more.

Also :) Happy Birthday Sis Leyla! I wish you all the best and great day:)

Cheers,

Bayram

*****************************

The genus Erysimum (wallflowers) includes more than 220 species, both popular garden plants and many wild forms. They are small, annual, short-lived perennial herbs or sub-shrubs, reaching 10-130 cm tall, with bright yellow to red or pink flowers produced throughout the spring and summer. One species, Erysimum semperflorens, native to Morocco and Algeria, has white flowers. Wallflowers have t-shaped trichomes. The genus Cheiranthus is sometimes included herein whole or in part.

Wallflowers are native to southwest Asia, the Mediterranean region, Europe, Macaronesia (Including Cabo Verde), and North America through Costa Rica. Many wallflowers are endemic to small areas. Erysimum kykkoticum, found only on Cyprus, is nearly extinct.

Erysimum species are used as food plants by the larvae of some Lepidoptera (butterfly and moth) species including the Garden Carpet. In addition, some species of weevils live inside the fruits feeding on the developing seeds. Many species of beetles, bugs and grasshoppers eat on the leaves and stalks.

PS. Thanks to Prof. Dr. Özcan SEÇMEN (E.U. Fac. Sci., Biol. Dept. Botany Section, Bornova-Izmir) for species ID.

Merhaba Bayram bey sarı doğayı yumuşatan ve baktığınızda hemen içinizi ısıtan güzel bir renk ve bu çiçeklerde ayrı güzel durmuş ellerinize sağlık.

Hi Little Brother,

The computer just ate my critique - grrrrr. Once again thank you for the wonderful dedication. The close-up of these pretty flowers is wonderful - love the colors and the details. Do you know what a wallflower is in the US - besides flowers? "a person who from shyness or unpopularity remains on the sidelines of a social activity (as a dance)."

Jane

Merhaba Dr.Bayram,
Selam!
Many thanks for the sharing of this wonderful wallflowers!
I loved the soft and gentle lighting for the shot with total sharpness, vivid colour and details in it
well done
greeting
