the column on these looks so much like a nose it is hard not to anthropomorphize them

so i wish these guys lasted longer always but they at least have a little sequential bloom action going on....i found this guy hanging out on this blow which was confusing because a) its a moth during the day time and b) i don't think he has the mechanic to get this pollen?

either way it was cool

the lower of the two spikes here gets more light, maybe another hour in the afternoon...it is much redder while the upper spike is pinker
