It appears to be Weird Plant Week in my Boise office. Both the Bulbophyllum “Daisy Chain” and a Butterwort are in bloom.
“Bulbos” are orchids that scarcely look the part. As seen in the photo at left, the flowers on this popular hybrid look like daisies that got trimmed accidentally. They don’t have petals all the way around, and the flowers live for only a week or less.
It’s the first day of summer, when I always wish I’d done more to drop a couple of pounds before shimmying into a swimsuit.
