 Welcome to the June 2012 Ethnobotanical Garden Picture of the Month Nominations thread.  In this thread you can nominate the best pictures posted in the Ethnobotanical Garden and other forums during the month of June. At the end of June all nominations go into a poll and we can vote on which should be the Picture of the Month. Anyone can nominate a picture. Four contest rules: 1. Original botanical-related pictures only. 2. Posted during June only. 3. No Self-nominations allowed. 4. No humans are to be in the shot. Each nomination should include:- A thumbnail linking to a larger version of the picture.
- A brief description.
- The name of the picture's owner.
- A link to the thread in which the picture was originally posted.

 Lophophora williamsii by intelligentlife here
-------------------- Vegetation has crawled for miles towards the cities. It is waiting. Once the city is dead, the vegetation will cover it, will climb over the stones, grip them, search them, make them burst with its long black pincers; it will blind the holes and let its green paws hang over everything.
—Jean-Paul Sartre, Nausea
