    Some of my  toadflax are  fasciated, but they're not particularly fascinating😒

    I suppose that's what this is on some Veronica spicata. It keeps putting on new growth at the top of existing spikes. It forks at the top, then the forks fork. It's forking inception around here. Some of the individual flower spikes are a foot tall and have been in bloom continuously for 2 months!

    I don't know if this is fasciation, but my zinnias are throwing up some oddball flowers this year.

    Here's what the majority look like (the normal ones):



    And the oddballs (the 2nd one looks like a flower growing out of the centre of a flower; there's no separate stem either)

    Lets hope the frosts hold enough long enough for it to flower.

    .you wait months for it to flower and a dozen come at once. A bit like buses

    Fascinating cucumber. 
    Surely conjoined twins rather than fasciation.
