^^Lunanuova, I am in love with those spanner petals. =D

^Aww. I don't think a coincidental similarity or two negate the hard work you've put into your entry...


First Mene event contest I've actually had time to enter! It was a lot of fun.

Description: A silk and brass orchid, created to liven up a laboratory too harsh for plants to grow in. Having been designed by an engineer, of course it doubles as a portable data recording device; the gears set into the petals and the hydraulic stems allow it to fold up for storage.

A new soul blossoms in nature
Username: Sakura_Madison
Entry:

Description:

Julirosoli is a nocturnal plant, which shows its true form at night. This plant grows on the rocks by rivers on top of the Andean Cordillera of South America. When daylight dawns, their petals close up and wait till nightfall. What makes them glow, is from the nutrients in the rock, which contains copper inside.

Loving the new new breeds.
The Julirosoli are so ethereally beautiful. What are they all reaching for?

Roachi, that plant is too cute! And the patch of them growing together in the second image is beautiful.

A new soul blossoms in nature
Username: Iltu
Entry:
Description: The dragon’s teeth (Laqueum dracon) is a carnivorous plant of magical properties that thrives in areas full of its natural prey. While other plants of this type typically lure and trap insects for their meals, the dragon’s teeth feeds on fleet thief fairies (volaticus furs). The plant closes its petals around its style, stigma, and pistil, which are collectively shaped as a dragon’s mouth. When an unwary fairy flits by, the petals unfold and the dragon-like plant strikes! Its small but powerful jaws sever its quarry’s spine, at which time the petals close back together around the prey. At this time, digestion begins, a process that takes several days.

Draco minimus (known colloquially as the bean dragon), the smallest species of dragon known to man, often makes its home near areas populated with dragon’s teeth. It is a well known fact that fleet thief fairies earned their name because they steal colorful bean dragon eggs to decorate their homes with. The dragon’s teeth serves as protection for many a bean dragon’s nest, and the bean dragon in turn helps to pollinate this curious species of flower.

The petals of the dragon’s teeth vary in shape, size, number, and color, making it hard to recognize unless it is actively chomping down on a fairy. However, at a second glance, it can always be identified by its distinctive leaves, which are shaped like dragon wings.


There's so many great entries! C: Best of luck to everyone!

Am I too late to enter?... I had lots of lag and just got this up on the photobucket...


Like a never ending clockwork
Username: Bonnie
Entry:
Description: This rose runs on diesel and is harvested every year by train yards and airship companies for it's coiled brass that they remove from the petals. The boiler is in the roots and the fuel is pumped into the soil. Two spring valves on the side release at the flower's maturity to signal the harvest and also to ignite and switch a cogwork that releases the hinges of the petals from the stem base. The companies use the coiled brass tubing for their steam powered mechanics. A large celebration occurs each year to usher in the time of the brass harvest. The flowers also make lovely arrangements for festivities or to adorn any neovictorian parlor.

I did use a picture to get the smoke, it is royalty free and public and is located here:
