A #macro #photograph of some #dew on the unopened #bud of a #walking #iris #flower. The #WalkingIris or #ApostolicIris grows by allowing a new #plant for form where the flower was. The weight of the growing plant them causes the #FlowerSpike to fall over and allows the new plant to #root itself in the ground.
In this way, the #trimezia #genus grows by #walking.
