While some bulbos are lovely in the traditional sense of beauty, others -- like this one -- have a different appeal. Their flowers are uniquely or even bizarrely designed. People tend to either dislike such deviations from the norm outright or find them strangely fascinating.
Wow.. I had to look at this twice before I realized what I was seeing. Thanks for sharing, that's pretty awesomely weird.
ReplyDeleteWOAH! At first I just thought, hmmm that's pretty. Kinda odd. Then the closer you get the more downright Lovecraftian it all becomes. Neat!
