This particular variety of Tendrillus Boutonius is found on the rolling plains of the Copstan Region of Middle Kowlandis, and, as unfortunately discovered by Audenberry’s field hand, Dudley Hargrove, is poisonous to the touch.
Dudley, now fully recovered from his agonizing experience, has vowed to, ‘never be within three feet of this godawful specimen again.’

Oh dear! It’s strange when beautiful things like this turn out to be so harmful. Nature is funny…thanks for sharing!

Poor Dudley! So glad he’s going to be okay–he can warn others . . .

Oh, glad you liked it! It must’ve been the bark with dried sour cherries and toasted pumpkin seeds–that’s my mom’s favorite! Hope you’re having a wonderful holiday!
Yikes, poor guy! At least this representation turned out beautifully, I love the colors!

However, he has resigned himself, somewhat, to suffering for the science of plants.
HOW MUCH?
