I love it, I've never seen a unicorn plant before, cool!
That is lovely, but i can see a shape aside from a unicorn. Nice capture.
Interesting looking flower!
The stem is the same colour as the bloom, interesting.
Lovely flower! Great capture!
A beautiful shot, filled with sunlight. But what a funny flower name! Wonder why it's called that?
Such a rich and beautiful colour. The petal shapes almost remind me of an iris. Gorgeous macro.
Lovely flower with a funny name!
Beautiful yellow color, and also orange, the petals are so ripply. Gorgeous macro!
Nice capture of this interesting flower. I'd love to see the seed pods.
I don't guess I am familiar with this plant, but it is interesting and very pretty.
