It seems weird to walk through a zoo and then post a photo of a flower but this little fella really caught my eye. Considering the conditions I went through to get it, I'm pretty happy with the result. It was a hot day on sunday, and the jungle house was sweltering and humid (or "scorchio" for readers of a certain age and persuasion). This flower was high up near the roof where it was hot enough to make the sweat pour down me in buckets.
The feeling of relief when I left that building was immense, I certainly don't think I'll be visiting any rainforests in the near future, cool flowers or not...
If this flower is native to cooler climates in Europe, and torturous treks through jungles aren't necessary to see it, I think I'd rather not know.
