April 24th, 2013: Elegant Indian paintbrush (Castilleja elegans) by bottomdollar
Such an odd looking bloom. This photo makes me want to touch it.
It is odd,... and it either has a, " Do I or don't I want to touch it or not look to me! Ha! A great picture of one of those blooms less compelling but interesting. Although I am sure I have many that would be the same to others that I just love! Ha!
I stink Stapelia is one of those examples for me. ( The typo was intentional!!! HaHaHa! )
LOL David!
I love Stepelia blooms too!
