Yep wolf, you are very right indeed- I know that it is the wrong attitude and that they are actually pretty nice plants Regarding G.tomentosa, it is a bore but the problem is not the plant in itself but rather the way in which human activities are affecting habitats - it is after all a plant that is...

Well - sort of ok :wink: This is what I think although I am definitely no expert on micropropagation - In general I say no micropropagation unless absolutely necessary - eg for growing orchids from seeds in vitro . However, although perhaps not absolutely necessary micropropagation may also be very ...

There are six species of hawk moth in Malta (excluding another one which has only been recorded a couple of times) - two of these are somewhat similar to the one in your photo (Hyles sp.) Your photo is not the endemic H. sammuti (H.tithymali sammuti) - it is in fact Hyles livornica (Striped hawk mot...

I don't think that there is any reason to declare war on this plant - it may be difficult to remove and can be a pest in some gardens and yards - so if it bothers you guys in your gardens, go ahead and attack it. However, although it may be a pest in such places, it is more or less confined to small...

agree 100% - there is a general apathy from the public about environmental matters, from both older and young people (of course not everybody) - the life of many seems to revolve just around parties, playstations, their mp3, their car and of course their sex life ...) - if those are ok everything is...

Nice new profile (I guess it is new since I have never come across it before) - photographed against the light (as shown in the quiz photo) it does look different from a the rest of the O. fusca group However in the more 'normal' photos it does look rather similar to the rest of the group - I do not...
