Siamese Twins



Every time this plant flowers it puts out one Siamese flower. Usually it has two stems fused together and produces two separate flowers. This time they were joined at the the stem and pistil, which made for a very cool flower. Notice the spider web in the side photo. I watched him build it (I need a life) and he's going to catch a lady bug that's been hanging around. I feel for the lady bug and am wrestling with playing God, but I think I'll let nature take it's course.

Beautiful. But, I think to get the full effect I need to see it in person ;)
