Nature's Sneaky Perfume - Clove-scented Broomrape blooms in the coastal charm of Sandwich Bay, Kent!
EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this print by FLPA/Malcolm Schuyl, we are transported to the stunning shores of Sandwich Bay, where a peculiar and fragrant flower takes center stage. The vibrant Clove-scented Broomrape (Orobanche caryophyllacea) proudly displays its three flowerspikes, adding a touch of mystery to the picturesque scene. As the Atlantic breeze gently caresses our senses, these parasitic herbaceous plants showcase their unique adaptation skills. Hailing from England's temperate climate, they thrive along the coastlines with their parasitic nature. Like skilled thieves in disguise, they tap into nearby host plants like bedstraw to extract nutrients for survival. But don't be fooled by their sneaky ways! These broomrapes have an enchanting secret weapon – a delightful clove scent that fills the air during their summer bloom. Their aromatic presence adds an extra layer of allure to this already breathtaking location. So come along on this visual journey through European nature at its finest! Immerse yourself in the beauty of these wildflowers as they defy expectations and flourish against all odds. Let us celebrate Mother Nature's ingenuity and revel in her ability to surprise us with every turn. FLPA Images brings you yet another awe-inspiring snapshot that reminds us how even parasites can become stars in their own right –
