Hollywood has it's share of exotica, indeed, as an example this flower. Crazy big, kinda of sexy, or just plain gross ( wait, I just described my agent ).
This eccentric flower vine is growing in my neighbor's garden. If you know the name of this species please let us know. We and all the neighbors have several names for it, which of course I can't repeat.
Before we can enter the flower in the garden club competition we need the proper name, not the pornographic names we keep coming up with.
I starts by looking like this, but smaller ( I can hear you laughing ).
And then it opens to a full two feet long by one foot wide ( my agent's mouth when he talks )
You can't fool me, I know what thinking.
The front, varicose veins and all.
The back, cellulite and all.
Oh and did I say, it smells like heaven ( the flower, not my agent ).
PS. If you're wondering why an agent, it's because everyone knows in Hollywood, it takes a agent to get in a garden club.

I feel confused and dirty having viewed that flower....
Thanks for having thrown me into a moral quandary!
Hello Kevin:
No, we have not seen anything quite like this before nor are we sure we wish to again.
Your final pun is noted! Are you a member?
pipevine; necessary nectar food for pipevine butterfly; see my post about my butterfly visit; only reason I know this one is I just posted about my visit to the butterfly exhibit here.

That is WILD. I think the flower needs its own agent.
Exotica or Erotica? I'm not sure which is more appropriate.
wow!
Kevin,
So nasty and yet at the same time so mesmerizing and as for it’s name I am sure that would be answered as a true conundrum of the garden. – G
I think it's gorgeous! I would love to know what the real name of it is. Is it a pipvine? WOW!!
Isn't it's name Seymore? That flower would frighten me. I expected you to say that it smelled terrible. Thank goodness it smells good. I'd be afraid it would eat one of my dogs.
Did you hear me laughting in Paris ?
you definitely hear me laughing, while cringing! ha, good one
Ummmm.....is that legal in CA?? I'm pretty sure it violates the decency laws of at least 10 states and one US protectorate.
Are you sure it is not a triffid?? I have never seen anything like it!
Kevin, do you have your blog classified for adult content? That's certainly the sexiest plant I've ever seen! All kidding aside, the patterns are beautiful.
I'm glad to know that everyone sees what I see, so it's not just myself and my neighbors with nasty minds.
Thanks Linda for the info. and the name. The Dutchman's pipe vine seems like a odd name, but then again, it's such a odd flower.
So, it's true what my biology teacher said," the flower is the sexual organ of the plant "
I have been dying to try to grow one of these......I fear it may be too much of a challenge in my climate. (Picture me dragging the plant into a small bathroom already filled with begonias, rain tree bonsai, giant staghorn ferns, and such for the winter season....)
Hmmm, how did I miss this post??? It's right up my alley...no pun intended. And by the way, the word verification is glymen...so that's what I think it should be called...glymen fornicacious!
"Feed me, Seymour".
Mwahahahahaaaaaaa!
Oh. My. Dear. God. Thank you for having humor and vits!
And thank you Mr. Kevin Hollywood for doing me the honor and following my blog. So glad I found the way back to you.
I have no comment except to say that when I read this I just had to see what other people were saying...you are very funny Hollywood forever, Kevin.
More like "Hollywood Erotica". Seriously, that's really a flower? I've never seen anything like it. Thank goodness, I don't need an agent to be in my Garden Club. I just had to wait til someone died.
En-Gorgeous....
I am pretty sure it is in the genus Aristolochia, the Cubans that I know in Florida call it a pelican flower...
I wish I had one.
The plant is called the Dutchman's Pipe, or Dutchman's pipe vine. It's a large genus, Aristolochia, with about 500 species. The one you have is most likely Aristolochia gigantea, since it is the giganitic one!
It's beautiful. I'd love to get some seeds. Save the seeds when the capsules form.
And thanks for following my blog. Welcome.
Interesting article and statistics you have gathered here. Yes, I agree that digital technology HAS taken over the postproduction world. But I really do not see anything wrong about that ;) In fact, I kind of like it! It's a new way of presenting!
