More on mystery plant - Kleinia patriciae

Dear John,

Forgot to mention something concerning Kleinia patriciae. You will have
many other people point this out also.

The "Flower" of the Asteraceae is actually a capitulum and it is a cluster
of individual flowers (or florets) surrounded by a whorl (or several
whorls) of bracts called an involucre. It would be better to call it a
floral cluster or capitulum.

I noticed you added a lot more pictures to your website since I viewed it
last.
Keep up the excellent work!

Cereusly, Steve.
