Description

Not sure what the proper name for these is but my Mother always called them Snapdragons. We used to love these as children because, if a small amount of pressure is applied to either side of the base of the actual flower, it opens like a dragons mouth. Happy memories of lost youth. :-) This flower appears to have a small beetle exploring it. Its presence is purely coincidental. ------------------------------------------ Original Photograph: 13 Aug 2003
