My Odd Shot of the day is a flower named Baboon Butt AKA Baboon Bottom. It's a very odd looking iris, it's pale pink with white stripes! And have you ever heard a more hilariously odd name for a lovely flower??
The guy who's name is Kasperek, and who developed this iris also introduced these (and BTW, JFTR...these following shots AREN'T counted as Odd Shots!...LOL)
Batik
Honey Tiger
Gnus Rayz (I also have one called Gnus Flash, but couldn't find a photo of it)
This guys seems to have a sense of humor when naming his creations!
Happy St. Patrick's Day
St. Patrick Rose

ReplyDeleteBeautiful shots, all of them, and the St Patrick rose is perfect.
ReplyDeleteBack to the Odd Shot - odd colour for an iris, and the name ... !
Beautiful shots of various types of irises. I've always loved the dark purple ones, but must check out that BB one. Beautiful soft pink colour.
