An afternoon off Bateman Street

[ewx]

This was just lying there looking all Andy Goldsworthy:

This is really small:

I shot one of these some time ago; it's in flower now.

There were a couple of this weird-looking plant in the rock garden, but they seemed to be doing a lot better in a normal flower bed.

All pictures.

No idea, I'm afraid, I neglected to look for a name plate (I do have a few name plates recorded for other things). Might have been in the alpine section of the glasshouses.

Someone who knows the jargon could have a go with an online plant identifier (http://www.colby.edu/info.tech/BI211/PlantFamilyID.html). Failing that I might pop back in one lunchtime and finnd it again.
