What an interesting one. The flowers almost look more like seedpods. Such a great dark colour.

They are really neat, aren't they - not spectacular but the kind of thing I really like.

Izzie, you're looking into the flower as much as that is possible with these - they only open a small window on each side of the flower, much like the Zootrophions. I guess that's how the insect gets in to pollinate them.
