Wow! Very unusual flowers/plants. I really like these. The composition is great.

Thanks Jessica. They are very photogenic I think. Of course, you don't see them flowering in the above images - so here is one flowering.

And a nice thing about them is that (to my eye at least) they carry on being interesting after they have flowered.
