thanks parks. :smile:

i was like a kid in a candy store bouncing around the forest.
we found one patch that was growing upside down in a dark little cave thing under the root of a tree. the pic didnt turn out good tho.


the blue stem printed nicely and i got 3 good prints of the totally blue ones.
