Random Plant – Part Two.

My apologies for not updating this as much as I should. April has been a pretty hectic month with work, so when I come home I just stare blankly at the walls while listening to music instead of doing anything more productive. Couple that with family visiting and the blog went on the back burner.

I’ve set reminders on my phone to remind me to blog, so this doesn’t get forgotten in daily life.

In either case…I’ve come to blog about another random plant that was growing in my yard.

I’m not sure how these plants sprout into existence. I don’t water the side or back of my house since there’s no grass or actual plants that I’ve put there  on purpose. But several months ago, the came to be and I left them alone since I was curious as to what kind of plants they might end up. The last time I had a random plant growing, it ended up blooming with one of my most favorite flower in the world. So what would be the harm in letting this one bloom?

They bloomed at some point last week….And the flowers were interesting!!!

As I was admiring the odd looking flowers, I noticed that there were a lot of flies…And then I noticed the smell…

It smelled like creatures had died all over in my back yard.

And so, this random plant was promptly ripped out of the ground and tossed into the green waste bin.

How does one get voodoo lilies randomly growing in their yard? Pure luck.
