A New Painting of ‘The Beast’
A painting entitled "The Beast of State Line Lookout" now adorns the cafe there. The pastel by Laura Sullivan was…
It looks like some sort of organic spaghetti, and it is growing strong at a few places at the Celery Farm. A friend of the blog wondered just what that weird stuff is, and I’m not sure I can be very helpful.
It’s dodder.
The good news is that it appears to be native and not horrendous, bit the operative word is "appears."
This is the best description I found on the Web: "Dodder, a parasitic plant that lacks chlorophyll."
If anybody else can provide more info, please do.
Thanks so much for the info!
