Description
These flowers have a seductive fragrance, but are poisonous. The plant is blooming and has started to develop seed capsules. As soon as these capsules have reached its final size, the flower is abandoned and the stems with the seed capsules begin coiling. This process proceeds until the frontal spine of the capsule touches the ground. By further growth movements the capsules finally disappear in the soil, where they open and emit its sticky seeds, which thereafter are disseminated by ants.
