dutchman's pipe, so sexy!
I asked dear Dennison at the Audbon House and Tropical Gardens in Key West, Florida what plant in the gardens should not be missed. He took me to a back fence covered in the Dutchman's Pipe. Oh my! What a sexy plant. Please note the heart shaped leaves, the closed flower which appears so male, and the open flower which just screams, "woman!". All this to attract the pollinator which I have been told is a butterfly. The wee seed of this plant is also in the shape of a heart. I heart it so much. xoxo
