Look at the thing - it's like from another planet.
The first layer is nine big green/white petals.
Then a small yellow circle with a ring of spikes that start purple, go white in the middle and are then blue-ish at the end.
Then a 3-D target on the yellow circle made up of a dotted black line and some pink/black spikes that point inwards.
Then a little green stick in the middle with five yellow things hanging downwards.
Then a little green ball on top of that.
And finally three droopy purple things on that look like antennae.
I plucked one of the flowers (it grows along my neighbour's side of the fence) and took it with me when I dropped the lad off at school, and the other parents agreed is was pretty weird.

Why is it called Passion Flower? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Passion_flower and go down to "The name".
You're right. I think I saw something like this on Star Trek. LOL It looks alien.
I assume from this post you are not a gardener then??
I just mow the lawn and stuff. Evergreen shrubs are my thing. Dig hole. Plant shrub. Chop off occasional brown leaf.
Actually you could save some more time for blogging by planting Astroturf - you only need to hose it down once every few years. Just cut a few holes for your favourite shrubs
