Week 7 Oct. 26th - Nov. 1st

Tuesday, October 27, 2009 | |

For this spooky week of Halloween here is a strangely named South American flower for everyone to see. I'd hate to ask this little guy Trick or Treat? Do you think he would suck your blood?

Amaryllidaceae Haemanthus albiflos also named "White Blood Lily"

How unusual! At first it looked like a big clump of toasted coconut to me. I like it!

I don't think I could trust any flower that looked like that - with an inner beauty and spiny exterior...

Yikes!

Oh, what a coincidence, I've posted the same flower but they're red blood lily. It is a beautiful flower, right? Mine is up at my garden blog. Have a happy weekend!
