39.🦇 Specimen: Fangbloom

📜 Field Guide

The Fangbloom is one of the more menacing inhabitants of the Poison Garden. Its deep violet petals draw back to reveal a dark blue bud armed with curved fangs, glistening as if eager to bite. Folklore tells that Fangblooms lure the curious closer with their vivid colour, only to snap at fingers with surprising speed. Some whisper they feed not on insects, but on fear itself.

🍄 Habitat

Found in soil rich with minerals and shadow, Fangblooms thrive in damp, half-lit corners. They are said to favour ground where rain collects, as though the water sharpens their bite.

⚠️ Warning

Never attempt to touch the Fangbloom’s centre. Tales say their fangs carry a chill that lingers in the bones, and dreams haunted by voices gnashing in the dark.

🎨 Sculptor’s Note

Each Fangbloom is hand-sculpted from clay and painted by hand, set into glossy dark soil with mineral accents. Every mouth is unique, with its own arrangement of fangs.
