As Bat Week draws to a close, let’s celebrate the bat flower, Tacca chantrieri. This plant gets its name from the two bracts that spread out behind the inflorescence, resembling the outspread wings of a bat! Happy Bat Week & Happy Halloween. #batweek #Dioscoreaceae #Botany 🌾🧪🌱🦇
Photo of an erect inflorescence against green leaves. The umbel-like inflorescence has two broad, wing-like, lateral bracts and many long, dangling filamentous bracts. All are black. Small, blackish flowers emerge from the center of the inflorescence and become pendulous as they age.

"Le principal trait morphologique commun à cette famille tient à la présence d’un capitule, autrement dit d’une inflorescence, un ensemble de fleurs regroupées à leur base par un involucre de bractées."

Bougainvillea are thorny plants with beautiful inflorescence. The other name they have in some indigenous languages is “puti tainobiu”

Unsettling Inflorescence

#elezen #gpose #ffxiv
A blue skinned duskwight elezen is sitting with her arms folded across her laps, back against 2B's bed. A bright florescent light shines overhead.

I took this pic at Kew Gardens, London. The corpse flower typically grows 6 to 10 feet tall (about 2 to 3 meters) when in bloom, making it the largest unbranched inflorescence (flowering structure) in the plant kingdom. It is truly impressive! 😲

Northern paper wasp getting a leg up on the plentiful goldenrod.

#insects #wasps #wildlife #nature #NaturePhotography #photography #AltText
Extreme closeup photograph of a wasp (likely a Northern paper wasp) using its forelegs to cling to the side of a yellow goldenrod inflorescence while using its hind legs to stand on goldenrod inflorescences with out of focus goldenrod florets and green foliage in the background. Goldenrod has small, yellow flower with fringe-like petals than line a long stalk. The wasp is facing left in profile with its head and thorax in sharp focus and the remainder of its body mostly out of focus. Northern paper wasps have a black and yellow striped abdomen with brown markings, a black, brown and yellow markings, a black head with large, brown compound eyes and a yellow face and mandibles, two brown antennae, six, brown segmented legs, and two transparent, amber wings with darker veining.

最近在挑新的香水，所以和友到处逛香水店中

最后买了Diptyque的L‘Ombre Dans L‘Eau，很适合自己
上一次这么喜欢的香水是Byredo的Inflorescence，结果友们都晕这个味道🤣！好过分！

It’s like some sort of botanical octopus emerging from the sand! This is Urodon dasyphyllus, a small prostrate shrub with dense terminal inflorescence. It’s Such a stand out in the sandplains of Tutanning!

The spooooookiest plant in the Nobody Nursery inventory is Oplopanax horridus (devil’s club). In the deep of the hemlock woods the smooth stems slither through the dark until rising up like a charmed snake, their broad leaves casting shadows onto the ghost pipe, gnome-plant, phantom orchid …

Clouded Sulphur answers: "It's still warm, this is still blooming, and I came out of my caul two days ago."

Human, "It's not a caul, it's a crysalis."

Clouded Sulfur: "Whatever. Bet you didn't even have a caul." (Flies to next inflorescence.)

Barringtonia procera is a tree with long, dangling inflorescences that hang at the ends of branches for easy access by bats, & the night-blooming stamen-flowers are easily seen in moonlight. They attract bats that forage by sight & smell, not echolocation. #batweek #Lecythidaceae #Botany 🌾🧪🌱🦇
Nighttime photo of a long, dangling inflorescence of brush-like stamen flowers. They are white. Large simple leaves are visible in the background. Photo by Scott Zona CC BY-NC 2.0.

The lure of new and unfamiliar is powerful.

I get terribly excited seeing a plant species I don't know. Last year I went to Crested Butte and saw this magnificent species from the poppy family.
An inflorescence with many light pink flowers with spurs all crowded together with some nearly white blooms and seed pods developing. The foliage is very divided and richly green. Big plant! So big. I was worried I was looking at an invasive when first seeing it. Wide shot of the plant with its giant leaves that are decided up into many smaller leaflets like a classic fern or parsley. On a mountainside with many other quite verdant plants. Beyond the pink inflorescences are other plants with white carrot-like umbrella shaped inflorescences and some school bus yellow flowers from the sunflower family.

Two different color flowers on this Tillandsia hybrid.
Photo of a Tillandsia purpurea x caerulea inflorescence with several three-petal flowers with dark purple tips and a white center, and just one flower with a solid light purple color.

A golden barrel cactus colony with scattered silk floss tree flower petals and the glow fom the sunset, illuminating the plants from the left. A close-up of a butterfly agave just before sunset. A large and symmetrical 'lavendar lady' mangave. I don't know what plant this inflorescence belongs to, but love the shape and texture.

Could the weird rod-shaped inflorescence be from a grass tree?

Genus sounds like a disease, haha.

"Dreams of summer"
Viper's bugloss (Echium vulgare), a pretty plant that blooms from late spring to very late summer. As many members of the borage family, the flower buds are pink, while the flower petals are blue.

This week I've mostly been looking at fungi...

But here are a couple of flowers that I couldn't ignore - Wild Angelica complete with a Common Carder Bee and a freshly opened Nettle-leaved Bellflower.
