Glen Davidson says 1 February 2012 at 8:21 pm If that’s a walking palm, why are there still strawberry runners? Can’t answer that, can you, damned dirty evolutionist? Glen Davidson
Cuttlefish says 1 February 2012 at 8:26 pm And, dammit, where is Carl Pilkington’s Mexican Jumping Bean?
A. R says 1 February 2012 at 9:06 pm Socratea exorrhiza, one of the more bizarre members of the Kingdon Plantae (and there are plenty of those).
Marie the Bookwyrm says 1 February 2012 at 9:07 pm Since I’m currently re-reading LOTR, I have only one response. ENTS!!!!!
John-Henry Beck says 1 February 2012 at 9:32 pm I got to see a few of those last year on a trip to Nicaragua. Lots of interesting stuff down there. Strangler Figs, for instance.
Cupcake Porn says 1 February 2012 at 9:41 pm It’s almost like it forgot that it could grow roots from the base :)
Brian says 1 February 2012 at 9:47 pm Nah, it just decided that growing roots from the base was for suckahs. It’s like baggy pants — all the cool trees are into visible roots now.
frankb says 1 February 2012 at 10:30 pm Hey, cut out all the middle stuff and you have a frame for a teepee. Hollow out the trunk and you have a chimney. Very intelligently designed.
A. R says 1 February 2012 at 11:05 pm frankb: But can you stick in your mouth in a ridiculously Poe unconscious imitation of a sex act?
