how cute and funny! what plant is that?

Gwenfar - it's Calceolaria uniflora (Darwin's Slipper flower). Apparently it was discovered by Charles Darwin at the southern-most tip of S. America. I took the photo at Malvern show, where it was an entry in the alpine pplant competition. I'd never seen anything like it before. A small army of Button Moon's Mr Spoon marching right at me.

Hi HM. It's been lovely catching up with all your posts at last - and I'm sorry I didn't get to Malvern judging by your photos(bit of a slog from here).

I'm glad I'm not the only one who thought the slipper flowers looked like Mr.Spoon!!! :)
