Not, it must be admitted, the prettiest of flowers. Not something to show up in a wedding bouquet.
But, green onion flowers certainly have character and a sort of weird charm. The bee appreciates their beauty.
As someone who could be similarly described, I feel the kinship.
Show offs.
But, awww, so delightful to the eye. And they have a right to their more generally noticed beauty as well.
Addendum: For those of you who have not read Pratchett yet, IO9 has a handy guide with descriptions.

I love these flowers!
Do they smell slightly oniony at all?
Say, I only accidentally realized that there's a link in this post when my mouse ran over it---have you considered changing the color of the live links so they show up? Or do you want them the same color as the text?
Hm. I looked more closely--maybe the link is a tiny different in color? I can't discern it though...
Fresca,
They don't smell of anything to me, but I'm still pretty congested.
The link color is somewhat visible in my browser, but it probably should be a little more distinct.
Ah, yes---thanks! I've probably missed a lot of links before this. I don't know how much people follow up links, but I often do.

I love album blossoms. Alien-like and interesting.
