These two hoya peduncles were photographed about a year ago, just before they were decapitated in a tragic tumble off the windowsill during a houseplant rearrangement. An unfortunate event, because it could take a couple of years for a new peduncle to grow. Before the accident this one was dripping nectar and ready to bloom an umbel of star-shaped yellow flowers.

Mossy rock. (And bird poo?)Wellington, UK
Update: twentysixtypes replied to let me know it’s not bird poo but lichen, another type of moss. Thanks, Craig! 
P.S. It’s unfortunate sucky that tumblr lacks the ability to reply to replies.
