Wild Cucumber Seeds in their space ship pod.
Wild Cucumber Seeds in their space ship pod.
Today I saw the flowering part of a Russian Olive tree.
and.. for good measure, I also saw the flower of the aforementioned and oft (recently) photographed Bryony.
Today I met Bryonia from the tribe Benincaseae. It read to me from the gospel of Cucurbitales which, if translated correctly, claimed an intention to take over the planet.
Today I saw fresh new tendrils of a Bryony. (The first I have seen of the season) Can you see last season’s dried up tendril.
