Pat: Can it be a mushroom, I don't want to take any flack! (2 years and 220 days ago)
bluefly: Yes it can be any fungi or fungus because they are parasitic in nature. (2 years and 220 days ago)
carousel: i see several submitted photos about plants that not really attack something or someone. is it enough if the plant looks scary? (2 years and 219 days ago)
carousel: no answer, so i think it is enough if the plant looks scary on the photo (for example an aloe). not necessary to catch when the plant attacks something or someone. (2 years and 217 days ago)
bluefly: Do not post just any picture with a plant, unless you consider it evil! so I guess if it looks like it can bite then it's ok. (2 years and 217 days ago)

"Ok guys here it is, you on the left corner keep an eye out for the fire brigade. You on the balconies strike as soon we get in the front door. You up on the first two windows keep climbing to the roof. And you guys to the right get around the corner and dont let anyone out the back door.... GO GO GO...

Killing Tree - created by Celestial

Killing Tree photo
final rank: 10 out of 44 (final score: 50.4 %)

This is at the Killing Fields in Cambodia. I hesitated to submit this photo because I didn't want to offend people but this is an important part of Cambodia's history that not enough people know about. So though this may be confronting to some people and probably won't rate highly I decided to post it anyway.
