Leaf pictures of R. tomentosum cross seed plants
Kristian Theqvist, 30-Jul-2008, rev. 000


I collected in July 2008 leaves from some of my R. tomentosum cross plants, placed them on a blank paper and took a picture for making easier comparison of various leaf forms to the mother plant R. tomentosum and to two other Ledums, R. groenlandicum and R. diversipilosum 'Milky Way'. The picture shows the underside of the leaves. The leaves are collected from new growth and as such are not showing the colors, hairs and glands of a mature leaf. Some of the leaves are hairless.

Note: You get the name of the cross on the screen when you place the cursor on the leaf. A picture of the pollen given species or hybrid is opened when you click on leaf.
