Travel Witch,
Gee I wonder why the

@BryWisteria

The flower is the Sumatran Titan arum - an endangered flower

the flower is endangered and possibly no one wants to smell it! That is too bad!

Hahaha just goes to show that there really are fan fics about everything, @Amethyst! And totally agreed- even if there was “smell-o-vision”, I think I’d pass this time!

They do seem to be very rare! And same here, @Susurrus- I’d line up to see a lovely and rare nice-smelling flower, but a stinky one? No thanks!

I’m not sure why it’s endangered, @Jeannie1- that’s a good question! Even if it is quite smelly, it’s always sad to hear about species going extinct . It makes me wonder what wonderful flora and fauna existed in the past that we no longer know about!

I heard about this flower years ago. I’ve never seen it in person, obviously. Thanks for the pic bc it is pretty!!

[Abs53]

That is literally one of the most beautiful things I’ve ever seen

I love the colour I bet it’s so tranquil there

[BryWisteria]

You’re welcome, @Christina4!

Glad you liked it @Abs53- it really is a gorgeous plant I’ve seen smaller Wisteria and it’s lovely, but to go to the tunnel and be surrounded by it would be like a dream come true!

A flower inside a flower, inside a flower. We found this in my Tiger Lilies this afternoon! That has to be a good something if not just beautiful

[Amethyst]

Ooh, that’s pretty! With it all wet and dewy looking that’s just gorgeous!

[Susurrus]

We were watering the flowers in our half circle out front. It’s between our dinner plate Hibiscus & behind a small bit of daisies. I cant wait for those & our Rose of Sharon to bloom. They are doing really well so far. Fingers crossed

[Amethyst]

Sounds as if you have a marvelous garden!

[BryWisteria]

A flower inside a flower inside a flower- it’s flower Inception! That is absolutely gorgeous, @Susurrus- and the picture looks like a professional shot too! Thanks for sharing your gorgeous blossom and I hope your other upcoming flowers bloom beautifully as well!

[Susurrus]

Thank you, I can’t take credit for the photo, my daughter took my phone & started enhancing the flower. She did a great job though! It’s a great way to capture the flower with the water.

[BryWisteria]

Wow- your daughter is a natural, @Siofra! Looks like she’s got a real talent for photography

[Susurrus]

We got this flower as a seedling from my neighbor. It’s a Dahlia. It just started blooming this week & it’s beautiful! I love to sit on my porch & look at it in the sunlight.

[praecog29]

The Dahlia is breathtaking. Thank you for sharing. It could be a desktop background or perfect profile pic. Can I steal it?

[Amethyst]

That looks like a professional picture! Great job Siofra!

[Susurrus]

Oh thank you! I actually just cropped it, I didn’t do anything special to it!

[Amethyst]

You did a great job!

[BryWisteria]

What a stunning Dahlia, @Susurrus! And it looks like your daughter isn’t the only one with a talent for photography- you took a really gorgeous shot!

Thanks so much for sharing

[Susurrus]

I know this isn’t a “flower”, but look what happened when we were shucking corn

3 for the price of 1

[Amethyst]

Wow. I’ve never seen anything like that. Weird.
