Study Lab(ia) - Let's learn from each other

And some examples of the specimen with all hair removed.







In this particular specimen, you can see the hairs are beginning to re-emerge. While this can troublesome issue for gardeners with little time, and can cause unpleasant abrasions to both the flower and the grower, it also presents a good excuse for playing in the garden.

While this example can be used to demonstrate the application of materials used to remove hairs, the photographer has stated that this is whipped cream, and by licking the cream from the flower, finds that missed hairs are quickly discovered, providing a tasty, pleasurable and effective means of keeping the flower clean.




Here we see a beautiful, recently pollinated Irish varietal




Here we have a creative trim job

Here have a specimen in the laboratory, under glass, that I call the Chevy 327, or Small Block V




An exceptionally well maintained specimen.




And an expertly trimmed Whispy variety

The remaining photographs are simply additional examples provided for class study

Please note the sweet nectar flowing from the flower's center, indicating a receptiveness for pollination, a process that should never be missed

And for our last two photographs, the professor provides:

1. A particularly creative, and to the professor, attractive trim




and

2. A flower with stems so exquisitely perfect, that the trim job just doesn't matter



This concludes today's lesson

Great thread!!

Keep up the good work.

I hope I still get credit in the class for this late answer,

A - Happy to oblige (fan of all varietals actually)

Absolutely. The professor would also chose "A", so we are 3-A's to zero on the other three choices.

Thank you, and yes indeed, I will.

Somebody tell me about this one (post #92)-- This is obviously an out-of-the ordinary set of labia, but is it considered a "medical condition"? I mean, is this caused by a virus or hormone condition?

In some very limited searching, I did find this from the book "Joy of self loving" and all examples were considered normal. That doesn't really answer your question, but it did say that "typical" is largely based on the pornographic image standard and that large labia minora, including some very large, is not that un-typical.

Professor Bustmall, here is my final exam paper. It shows the direct correlation between an Orchid flower & a woman's flower. I hope I passed the class sir !

I wouldn't argue with a bulldog either way, but if that's not proof, nothing is.

A+
