Flowers for Halloween

Aristolochia, the Dutchman's pipe, is a strange looking flower with an unpleasant smell. It is the food plant of many butterfly larvae.
Ruttya is another strange flower blooming in my garden.
Happy Halloween!
I am linking this to Macro Monday.

    If I only liked the heat more I'm sure I would LOVE living in the tropics with all the beautiful blossoms there.

    Very interesting flowers. The Dutchman's pipe is quite strange looking but also fascinating. It's fun seeing plants/flowers from other parts of the world.
