"I'm really pleased that we've finally coaxed our Puya chilensis into flower," said horticulturalist Cara Smith, shortly before she slipped and fell onto its spines and decayed at its base."

RIP Cara. Sad









I made the last bit up. Smile

I'd never heard of one of these before, I'd always thought that there should be something like this out there, and now I find that there is. Not only that but there's one twenty minutes drive from me. Thanks for posting that.

That's made my day.
