A plant pundit comments on plants, the foibles and fun of academic life, and other things of interest.
Totally strange flower
As a flower guy TPP is green with envy of anyone who has seen this beauty in the field, and that's funny because the plant is never ever is green itself. This plant is a completely subterranean parasite that only surfaces to flower. It superficially resembles a gigantic star flower (Stapelia) because it is fly pollinated. But so hard to describe. You'll have to go see for yourselves. It's easier than going to Borneo, a place TPP has never been. TPP has wrote about one of its cousins before.
