  • Burger’s Onion

    We’ve come upon an interesting blog we thought would interest our followers.  Burger’s Onion, http://burgersonion.blogspot.com/, deals with weird botany and horticulture.  Posts with fabulous pictures range from a description of the minute Anacampseros hillii to pictures of flowering Hondelbal (“dog ball” in Afrikaans – just guess what this plant looks like) to gymnosperms of the Namib Desert to Organic Pest Control, the Mad Botany Way (using carnivorous plants to mop up fruit flies in the greenhouse.)  The site also has good links to plant organizations, on-line communities and specialist nurseries (you can order poison dart frogs from Black Jungle, www.blackjungle.com).  Always good to have a sense of humor.
