New Challenge – What is This?

Posted on February 25, 2017 by heretherebespiders

Standard

I think this is an easy one. It might be hard for some, and at the very least educational.

It’s also creepy as heck, which I like a lot!

Have fun!

That is creepy, it looks like it should be the cover of a horror book.

  I thought you would be the first to know what it is! They were used in a Korean horror movie, actually. I knew they what they were immediately and it made me laugh.

    Actually I think I do know, not to give too much away should I mention dragons?

I got it before the hints. I think I shall refrain from mentioning it so others can play. Thanks. Hugs

Ok. I know what this is. Yes. It does look creepy doesn’t it?
Pretty in the summertime though!

WP needs a private message method for this kind of thing!

It’s a twig. What form of twig, I have no notion. It could also be the burnt fingers of a dead witch. Just saying.

  Hahah. If I used the good camera, I could make them look life sized…

They look like creepy skulls of evil pixies, or of some weird insects. I did get as far as deciding they were probably plant material and therefore seed pods, but I never would have arrived at the snapdragon without being told.

  I know! It’s crazy that something so pretty can look so creepy 🙂
  Yet another reason I love plants: they do unexpected things.

    The unexpected thing a creeper here has done is at present filling me with delight, and the larder with guavadilla juice! I have never known such a crop.

        A variety of granadilla or passion fruit that goes light green instead of purple, and is far larger.

        Way out of my frame of reference! What do they compare to, flavour-wise?

        Fairly unique and distinctive. A little bit like Fanta Orange with overtones of apple. Truly delicious, particularly with something like condensed milk added.
