The bur cucmbers are still flowering madly, but they are starting to set fruit.
The larger one is nearly an inch long now, and will perhaps double in size before it quits for the year. The fruits are not edible, but will make good Christmas decorations after most of the fibre is gone.
The second photo looks like a surrealist painting or something. You really have a good eye.
ReplyDeleteI really like the way you framed your shots. I don't think I've ever seen a bur cucumber before. Interesting.
ReplyDeleteI've read about these while researching something else but I don't think I've ever seen any.
ReplyDeleteThe second shot is my favorite. I love the spikes and the curly vine.
Great find for sharing Judy!
I don't think I have seen these before! How interesting - off to look them up and learn more!
ReplyDeleteI have never seen this before. Do they dry well?
ReplyDeleteI haven't seen this before, and it looks very interesting.
ReplyDeleteHow cool is this! I take it these are going to be a fruit you have to order, and won't be able to find in stores?
ReplyDeletevery interesting...
ReplyDeleteI don't think I've ever seen these before. They are very interesting.
ReplyDeleteLovely shots! This is a first for me.
ReplyDeleteSo far I have only seen the flowers. A couple of times this year I've gotten the feeling that nature where you live is slightly ahead of where I live. I think that's fascinating!
