Crocus is a genus of flowering plants in the iris family comprising 90 species of perennials growing from corms. Many are cultivated for their flowers appearing in autumn, winter, or spring. The spice saffron is obtained from the stigmas of Crocus sativus, an autumn-blooming species.

I saw this beautiful flower when I visited my brother in Pensacola, FL. It blooms once a year for just one night briefly, then is gone, just like Cinderella.
"Epiphyllum oxypetalum is a cactus family species from the South American rainforest adapted for pollination by insects including the fairly large gypsy moths. The anthers and multi-lobed stigma are arranged to maximise contact with surfaces of the moths as they enter deep into flower to gather nectar. The perfume is sublime and a pleasure for the lucky photographer. Not so lucky is the fact that 200mm flowers occur once per year and last only one night. The plant is cultivated in gardens all over the world." Description from Robin McTaggart

I don't know where I took this, or what it is. The photo has been in my "For Flickr" folder for three years, though.
Thank you for looking. Isn't God a great artist?
Back when I first got my Macro Lens - didn't know how to use them then! was confusing :P

Shot as a focus stack of four images with a Raynox DCR-250 attached to my macro lens. This provides a very shallow dof, focusing on the stigma, the female portion of a flower that receives the pollen. The anthers can be seen in very soft focus in the background.
From my wife's flower garden, a rose plant given to her by a neighbor. It has prospered. Lots of anthers, and quite a few stigmas. Full sunlight.

Central stigma surrounded by pollen bearing anthers, a spring crocus (Pulsatilla patens ssp. multifida) flower.
Wish I had taken botany and photomicrography, as my sister did. This is the interior of a small Alstroemeria non-native cut flower. It has freckles on the petals and arrived here green. Then gradually turned yellow-gold.
Have no idea how that drop happened. Weeping for our country, perhaps.
The Laowa 60mm f/2.8 magnifies by two, and I could focus approximately 1/2 inch/ 0.27 cm from the stigma.
Reproductive apparatus of the prolific hibiscus — untidy and spectacular growing to five metres in my Gold Coast hinterland garden. On a misty morning.

I'd not seen Gynura's flowers before. I'm told the plants are usually 'pinched' of their pretty orange flowers because they have an unpleasant odor. Perhaps that explains a former scientific name: Cacalia. That name was used for it by Carl Ludwig Blume (1796-1862), deputy director of the Bogor ('s Lands Plantentuin, Buitenzorg) Botanical Garden on Java between 1823 and 1826. He'd found the plant on the slopes of the Gede Mountain near his garden. 'Gynura' is today its official name; 'female-tailed' is for the very long stigma/pistils of the flower (see the photo). And 'aurantiaca' is for its orange.
