kembang sungsang (upsided down flower)
Kembang sungsang, Gloriosa superba L. i always remember the name because its unique habit on one of my subject (plant morphology) on University.
If u notice, the flower has upside down appearance. with stalk at the upper part, corolla with stamen and ovaries on lower part. can you imagine how could u life your live upsided down? unimaginable...

what a nice pict, and also a nice blog. i think i never see this flower, even at plant morphology course.
but, would you not only write the remarkable organisms, but also the story behind it. the story how u could be chosen as the participant, how u reach the area. i'm very curious about it. may be because you are too busy to write those kind of thing, but we are waiting for the interesting story. :)
btw, speedy taxonomy, you introduce that term to your junior. what a sin made by young taxonomist named alex ha ha
