Chlorophytum



"...it pleases me to think of you
reading this in another time and place,
at another chance axis of those old infinites..."

    But... the lowly spider plant...an aphrodisiac? Who knew?

  2. But he is quite correct! My Arisona plants came to me from a dear friend in Memphis who had brought hers home from a dear friend in Chicago.

  3. Did you do something magic to this photograph? Multiple exposures? Bizarre focal length or filters? It is a quintessential plant!

    This is such an incredible picture ... the color, texture, movement ... the plant looks like ribbon candy.

    I love this.

    Came back to look at this again. I just adore this photo. If I saw it hanging up for sale somewhere, I'd buy it.
