Buff Tailed Bumblebee enjoying my surprise flower. No idea what they are. White and purple ones which grew to around 3’ tall! They look a bit ridiculous where they’re planted but the bees absolutely love them!
Just feeding on the last of today’s sunshine.

Finished The Day of the Triffids by John Wyndham.
Imagine waking up blind… and the plants are moving and killing!
If you’re into slow-creeping dread and nature turning against us, it’s a must-read.

As a member of the #Illuminati, please allow me to offer you this advice: do not approach.
Caution, #triffids!!

Given the sign on the right, I'm not surprised this pathway in the Glasgow Botanic Gardens is currently closed!

Photo: Spreads of thick leaved plant life cluster on a rock face. Sturdy pink stalks rise from those clusters with similar thick leaves situated more individually. Baseball-sized clusters of these leaves crown the stalk tops. Their spot on their rock perch is a craggy gray mixed with white patches and brightly lit by the late morning sun, but most of this rock formation is shaded and nearly black. Similar oodles poke about at the edges of the frame. If I've got this right (which is possible, if not probable) this is an oodle of Dudleya greenei, which is (according to the WikiOfPedia:) "a perennial species of succulent plant known by the common name Greene's liveforever, or Greene's dudleya" (not making this up). But (cautionary note) LaWiki also says Greene's dudleya "is endemic to the Channel Islands of California, where it grows along the cliffs of four of the eight islands;" and this isn't there. In fact, it's nearly 800 miles north of there. So I could be totally wrong. This might, to the contrary, be some whole 'nuther Dudleya. Maybe a Dudleya Doright. But I think those are mostly confined to Canada … and cartoons. And the typically wear hats. So, Triffids? But most definitely 'tis an oodle of something … or other near Meyer's Creek at Gold Beach, Oregon D5600: ƒ/6.3, 1/500, 300mm, ISO280

Photograph of the Sundew amongst grasses. The leaves of the plant are arranged in a rosette with narrow and hairy fronds. The flower grows to one side of a single slender, hairless stalk that emanates from the centre of the leaf rosette.
Birmingham has its very own #Triffids! the carnivorous Sundew - Drosera Rotundifolia. Our recent Sunday Showcase on the flora of Sutton Park raised our awareness. Wonder if John Wyndham found inspiration there when he was living in Birmingham as a child? Ref - MS 2507/4/2/58/171 #LibraryofBham

Have you ever wondered where John Wyndham got the idea for the eponymous human-munching abulatory plants in his classic 1950s sci-fi novel The Day of the Triffids? If so, this plaque in Glasgow's Botanic Gardens provides an answer. Admittedly, it's nowhere near the true one!

House plants are cool, I just want a loyal triffid, just a small one. You can get cuttings of those, like with spider plants right ?

While I’m sewing away today, I think I’ll listen to my favourite post-apocalyptic novel.
Seems the season for it…

This one is in by the abandoned railway station in the city's Botanic Gardens, and there are about a dozen similar Glaikit plaques in all at various points around the city.

It seems there's an entire history of Glasgow which no one never knew existed until someone starts putting up plaques about it. And once there are plaques, it must be real, right?
