32.🌑 Specimen: The Viper’s Bloom

📜 Field Guide Notes:

Dark violet petals cradle a pod with pale fangs, glistening as though wet. The Viper’s Bloom is whispered to hiss when disturbed, its breath carrying a faint scent of iron. Folklore says it first sprouted from the graves of those slain by venom, and that its bite carries echoes of their last gasps.

🧪 Classification: Venomous predator bloom; flourishes in shadowed woodland.

⚠️ Warning: Do not lean close — its fangs are said to pierce skin as easily as silk.

✨ Each Viper’s Bloom in the Poison Garden is an individually hand-sculpted piece of gothic botanical art, a unique creation of dark fantasy décor for collectors of curiosities and sinister beauty.
