zuzu said:It's all so subjective. That's why I'm happy we have all the different galleries. The shape and size of many plants depend so much on variable factors, such as climate, soil, and gardening practices, that I'm only interested in closeups of blooms. They stay constant in most cases.


That's the point- most blossoms of the same plant will look about the same. Landscape shots, OTOH, display how the plant plays with it's neighbors, how it fits into a border, etc. And shots of foliage, roots, bark, seeds, seedlings, etc. are very helpful.
