I consider the subject on these photos an object of wonder, and, to date, I still wonder if this plant is indeed a new species.

This is truly intriguing, wouldn’t it be great if you have discovered a new species of plant?
Of course, my friend! Thank you for the “support”. Hehe …
Sir, where was this photo taken?
Mt. Cristobal in Quezon Province.
Very unusual plant.
That’s why I am really hoping it’s a new species

Really unique plant like a jewel. I would like to give it for my wife.
I actually named it Pearls of the Orient Seas since they (the four petals or fruit?) look like pearls. And, yeah, it’s something nice to put on a ring.
Nice post!
Great post! I never wonder … amazing shot!
Thank you very much, Sir Jake!
I have posted my photo of Princess, a feral cat, on the second day of finding out what it feels like to receive love.

WOW – how interesting is that …
I’m glad it interests you, Jo!
It does look very different. Nice photos.
Thank you very much!
It kinda looks like an insect’s egg. Interesting…
Yeah, like bugs …
I totally agree—they look like eggs. But, what type of eggs? I haven’t a clue. Wonderful pictures as always
Looks like mistletoe…..
Very cool photos! Totally interesting.
Thank you so much for saying that, Zingaling!
I bet it is. If it’s a new species, do you have a name in mind? I had a lot of fun reading your comments. Now I do really have a Bro when it comes to fascination with the supernatural and the underworld. Everything on your list , I followed too. The secret circle cool. Dark witch craft and all. Next season by Jan. 4,2012…”bitin!” Moonlight was actually great too but it ended abruptly. Have you seen Teen Wolf and HBO’s The Walking Dead? After a long day at work I would watch my recorded series while eating breakfast. It has been a routine that I look forward too after an exhausting 12 hour graveyard shift.
Our son’s gives us the opportunity to experience our once amazing childhood. Everyday I thank God that he gave me the most priceless gift I could ever ask for, my son. He completes me and my wife in ways I can never describe but can’t do without.
God bless you my friend and your wonderful family. The volcano trip was an enjoyable event. Thanks for sharing them. Any cool series you want to recommend?
Thanks for the info about The Secret Circle. Here in the Philippines, it’s still up and running. It just started for like a month ago so I assume magiging bitin nga. Anyway, Teen Wolf and The Walking Dead are something new to me nonetheless I will sure dig the Underworld (Kuta ng mga Pirata) to find those. Seems like they sound interesting! Actually, it’s how I kind of recharge when I can’t go outdoors due to either budgetary or “commander’s” constraints. The problem is, once I started watching I can’t take my eyes of the boobtube until I’m done with a particular T.V. series. What I usually do is to just buy a DVD of a single season or two then one sitting or marathon. That’s how my hunger can be satisfied and it became my practice since I’ve gotten busier. Back in college and high school, I follow a bunch of T.V. shows like crazy until I worked and raised a family. Too much info there.
Cool series? H’m … The Secret Circle so far resurrected the T.V. junkie in me after quite sometime. When I meant quite sometime, it means the last time the boobtube junkie possessed me was during the time Heroes, Prison Break, Without A Trace, a bit of One Tree Hill, … were rocking the house. So, other than The Vampire Diaries, I have nothing in mind now.
Now, may I ask the same favor from you? Considering the available channels you can access there, I’m pretty sure you have plenty to recommend. I could maybe find whatever you can recommend in the Underworld. Hehe …
God bless you too and your sweet family. I couldn’t thank you more for sharing with me your purposeful thoughts or should I say bright ideas.
The most priceless gift….
p.s.
I would name this plant “Bulaklak na Perlas” (Flower Pearls). Any suggestion?
or the other way around… Pearl flowers… haha… or you could stick to the original Pearl of the Orient
Arvee, welcome back! You think so …? I just thought di na masyadong “sisipa” kasi yan na ang taguri sa bansa natin di ba?
Haha… Bulaklak na perlas na lang
Flower Pearls … Pearl Flowers … I think the latter sounds a lot better. That’s your suggestion, Arvee. Thanks because I would choose that over my first choice!
Haha. Not that I forced you, right? Haha… anyways, hopefully you will get the real name for this flower otherwise, let’s settle with the Pearl flowers.
Hey nice post
do drop by my blog sometime. Thanks!

You are welcome, Arjun. I did stop by your blog and I must say I am impressed with your poetic talent. Keep it up!
Now that is one strange looking plant. This is the second blog I’ve visited participating in the Weekly Photo Challenge. You guys have a really great community of photogs having fun with this. I only take pictures of my thumbs and headless people, so what you do is most impressive to me.
Thank you, MDR, for taking time to visit me here! I couldn’t thank you enough for an effort coming from a brilliant blogger moreso the BIG words you wrote there.
Kudos to that enlightening post of yours that made it to Freshly Pressed!
What on earth is that? The world is truly the place for amazing creatures. Many of them are still hidden from our eyes…
Hence, we should not stop exploring … traveling … for as long as we can!
I’ll call it “Foursilog” short for ‘ang apat na itlog”…. kaso it sounds like it comes from the family of TAPSILOGS…. hahahahahha…
Ayos yan ah. Unique and very Filipino. Tingnan natin … Haha … Salamat for the suggestion, bro!
The wonder of creation! Thanks for sharing …
The pleasure is mine, backpackgal! Glad to meet you even just here.
The plant looks like rambutan or lansones fruit, hehehe! =P
I wish it is …

Still need better pictures of the leaves and flowers to identify it from over here.
I will when I get to go there again.
