Green meadows
Here's one for you - what is it? Joe Keller isn't allowed to answer, since it was his suggestion while we were out on the Alpine Garden Club of BC's walkabout at UBC this evening.
Finally: one I know! And I'm first!
Its a huge tray of brussels sprouts down at Granville market. Nice try Daniel but you can't fool all of us all the time.

Re: Green meadows
Glen, you got it! Bah! Still not hard enough. We've it accessioned as Raoulia australis - a member of the sunflower family. I'll post a larger perspective photo tonight.
OK, now to me I would have sworn that you acidentially took a picture of old green carpet -- could have sworn thoes are a few threads lying on the carpet! I think I need a new monitor or something -- you guys are too good!

Re: Green meadows
fourd - yes, the longer I stare at the photograph, the more lines I see
As promised, here's the larger perspective (even though it's a moderately sized jpg, it's quite a long download because it is hard to compress the detail - sorry)
