Lesson VI - Grooming Techniques
Before getting to the lesson, please take a moment to complete the pop quiz on post #102 by providing your multiple choice answer as a reply to this thread.
Today's examples shall varying degrees of hair, demonstrating multiple examples of popular grooming techniques and naturally occurring specimens. Naturally occurring members of the species are without fail, covered in some degree with a layer of course hairs. These hairs often obscure the tender petals, particularly in eastern and fully matured varietals, however, coat density does vary significantly from specimen to specimen within any particular varietal. Throughout much of the developed world, it has become couture to remove the hairs. While the author personally finds great acceptance of the practice, finding care, maintenance, visual stimulation and overall pleasure to be enhanced by the exposed specimen, many persons interested in the flower prefer the natural appearance. In fact, I do believe we have religious sect on campus known as the COTH, or something like that. The Professor is not a member of that church, but I do possess a great deal of tolerance for all varietals and sub-species.
