Thanks!
I hope it doesn't die, it has 3 more buds on it.
I went to a local little theatre production of "Little Shop of Horrors" last year. Cute show.
Actually, Les, I thought it was kind of sensuous...or is it sensual? I can never remember. Ever see "Animal House"?

Thank you, Donna, most kindly, for your wonderful comments on several of my images!
It's easier responding on just one image than waking up the few that commented on the others... :-)
Thanks again!!
