Eine wirtschaftlich bedeutsame Krokus-Art ist der Safran (C. sativus).

Français : Albertacce (Corse) - Crocus corsicus

 

Die zwittrigen, radiärsymmetrischen Blüten sind dreizählig. Die röhrig verwachsenen Blütenhüllblätter stehen in zwei Kreisen; entweder sind alle gleichgestaltig oder die des inneren Kreises sind kleiner. Es ist nur ein Kreis mit drei Staubblättern vorhanden. Die kurzen Staubfäden sind mit der Blütenröhre verwachsen. Die Staubbeutel sind gelb, weiß oder fast schwarz. Drei Fruchtblätter bilden einen im Boden befindlichen Fruchtknoten. Der Griffel besteht aus drei oder mehr Griffelästen. Die Bestäubung erfolgt durch Insekten. Erst nach der Befruchtung schiebt sich die Frucht aus dem Boden. Es werden dreifächerige Kapselfrüchte gebildet, die viele Samen enthalten.

The stamen (plural stamina or stamens, from Latin stamen meaning "thread of the warp") is the pollen-producing reproductive organ of a flower. Stamens typically consist of a stalk called the filament (from Latin filum, meaning "thread"), and an anther (from Ancient Greek anthera, feminine of antheros "flowery," from anthos "flower"), which contains microsporangia. Anthers are most commonly two-lobed and are attached to the filament either at the base or in the middle portion. The sterile tissue between the lobes is called the connective.

 

The stamens in a flower are collectively called the androecium (from Greek andros oikia: man's house). The androecium forms a great variety of different patterns, some rather complex.

This week the Sun featured a very long filament that stretched at least half way across the Sun (Oct. 20-22, 2015). Filaments are elongated clouds of plasma that are tethered above the Sun by magnetic forces. They are often unstable and usually break apart in less than a week, though they can last longer than that. Filaments are darker than most of the SunÕs surface when viewed in extreme ultraviolet light, as it is here. Credit: Solar Dynamics Observatory, NASA.

These are modern bulbs with an old filament style.

This i an LED so super efficient. Edison would be proud

There it was... parachute like with long purple filaments dotted with tiny drops of water. And the flower is one foot across!

 

And here I was, with my camera around my neck, groping around in the steamy hot Rare Plant House searching for a metal tag to identify this amazing flower extravaganza! And, it was Dog Day so I had my pup Honey watching me, tipping her head to the right and the left curious.

 

The flowers are black to purplish white, nodding on long pedicels, 2 bracts broadly ovate and winglike, 2 smaller bracts perpendicular to the others, black, greenish or reddish. Bracteoles threadlike, 6 - 8 inches long. Leaves basal, lanceolate, glossy dark green blade tapering down the petiole.

 

The genus Tacca, which includes the Bat flowers and Arrowroot, consists of ten species of flowering plants in the order Dioscoreales, native to tropical regions of Africa, Australia, and south-eastern Asia. In older texts, the genus was treated in its own family Taccaceae, but the 2003 APG II system incorporates it into the family Dioscoreaceae. Taccaceae is native to Malaysia.

A dark, solar filament above the Sun's surface became unstable and erupted, which generated a cascade of magnetic arches (Dec. 16-17, 2015). A small eruption to the upper right likely caused the filament's collapse. The action, observed in extreme ultraviolet light, covered about a 28-hour period. The magnetic arches are charged particles spinning along magnetic field lines that are reorganizing themselves after the event. Credit: Solar Dynamics Observatory, NASA.

The Sun sported a very long filament (over 30 times the size of Earth) that angled diagonally across its surface for over a week (July 31 - Aug. 6, 2014). Filaments are clouds of cooler gas suspended above the Sun's surface by magnetic forces. They are notoriously unstable and often break apart in just hours or days. So far, this one has held together as it rotated along with the Sun for over a week. The images were taken in the 193 Angstrom wavelength of extreme ultraviolet light and were tinted red instead of its usual brown hue. Credit: Solar Dynamics Observatory/NASA.

A new edit of an earlier macro of ornamental grass in our yard.

Cygnus is such a beautiful constellation, it is a neverending source of deep sky objects, whatever your focal length or experience level is.

 

this time it is the filament nebula, containing also the witches broom on top of the image. to me it seemed every minute of extra exposure time added more filaments to it, maybe i could have done even more time (well, enough is never enough :)), though i had to dismiss approx 4 hours of data due to occasional thin clouds.

Addio vecchia lampadina! Mi mancherà la tua illuminante trasparenza, la sobrietà del tuo globoso profilo e la fragile eleganza del tuo cuore filamentoso!

The flower has been given names related to this symbolism throughout Europe since that time. In Spain, it is known as espina de Cristo ("thorn of Christ'"). Older Germanic names include Christus-Krone ("Christ's crown"), Christus-Strauss ("Christ's bouquet"), Dorn-Krone ("crown of thorns"), Jesus-Lijden ("Jesus' passion"), Marter ("passion") or Muttergottes-Stern ("Mother of God's star").

 

Outside the Christian heartland, the regularly shaped flowers have reminded people of the face of a clock. In Israel they are known as "clock-flower" (שעונית) and in Greece as "clock plant" (ρολογιά); in Japan too, they are known as tokeisō (時計草, "clock plant"). In Hawaiian, they are called lilikoʻi; lī is a string used for tying fabric together, such as a shoelace, and liko means "to spring forth leaves".

 

In India, blue passionflowers are called Krishnakamala in Karnataka and Maharashtra, while in Uttar Pradesh and generally north it is colloquially called "Paanch Paandav" (referring to the five Pandavas in the Hindu epic, the Mahabharata). The five anthers are interpreted as the five Pandavas, the divine Krishna is at the centre, and the radial filaments are opposing hundred. The colour blue is moreover associated with Krishna as the colour of his aura.

In northern Peru and Bolivia, the banana passionfruits are known as tumbos. This is one possible source of the name of the Tumbes region of Peru.

 

In Turkey, the shape of the flowers have reminded people of Rota Fortunae, thus it called Çarkıfelek.

A delicate plume rises like a feather touched by light, where every filament seems to breathe in silence.

The subtle shades of violet and white blend into a dreamy softness, while the background dissolves into a symphony of colors and emotions.

 

It is a simple subject, yet full of poetry — a reminder that beauty often whispers rather than shouts.
