Kusamono aka Googlie

I brought my sweet little kusamono to work... my co-workers quickly thought it was odd.... or an alien at the very least.

So one of them went and found some eyes.... and we now have a new office pet.

Meet our little friend... Googlie.

We've been amused by this lil guy all day...lol Which has been good as I have been fighting computer problems and network seziures all day.


I hope he amuses you too....


kindest regards,

Victrinia

Very amusing Vic!

But what is it? I immediately thought mini mondo, but when i enlarged it, i found the "antenna" are actually flowers?!?!?!?!? Are those flowers its own flowers? or is it a mondo with flowers stuck in the pot? Very nice

Hey JayC,

I can't find the specific name, but it's a cousin of the ameria maritima seen here....

http://www.wsu.edu/~lohr/wcl/per/armeria/armeria.html

The flowers are part of the tiny grass mound... it's in a two inch pot if that helps with the perspective.

Glad you enjoyed it.

Kindest regards,

Victrinia

I am glad you got a good laugh out of it! That was why I had to share it... spread a little amusement in the joyful grind of a new week.

Very very cute, my daughter loves it. She has gone out into the garden to see if there's anything she can use to emulate it.
