Although I've seen images in books, I'd never seen a living one before. I believe it's parasitic on ivy, but don't know how it gets there. Is it in some way endemic? Or is seed distributed by birds? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Broomrape Thanks for that, Martin. Another useful link. I'll have a good read tomorrow. Spent the day in the garden today and pulled a muscle helfting something, so just catching up here now. Thanks again. Take it easy. Get well soon. Thanks, Martin. It's still very painful atm. Must get it better for Saturday when I go to Hampton Court Flower Show. Haven't missed it in years. -- Spider from high ground in SE London gardening on clay |
