Unusual purple tinged grasshead hangs from green shaft

Unusual purple tinged grasshead hangs from green shaft

No, it's not bent or damaged. The seedhead really does hang under the blade and form a delightful, whimsical triangular shape. Over and over I've seen the same pattern. Unusual to me but maybe you know what kind of South Florida grass this is.

Blue Herons and lily pads One

Blue Herons and lily pads One

The Herons are a form that came from Chihuly's experimentation with blowing different shapes and using new techniques in Finland. Following the Reeds series, he continued to push his team to try new things with the elongated tube form. After many days, they made pieces that looked to them like herons, which are the wading birds commonly found along Florida's shorelines and lakes.
