Darlingtonia californica, Carnivorous Plant Tie

If you have to wear a tie, why not showcase one of your favourite plants? This stylish tie features a beautiful botanical drawing of the carnivorous plant Darlingtonia californica. Also called the California Pitcher Plant, Cobra Plant, or Cobra Lily, it is native to southwestern Oregon and northern California, growing in bogs and seeps with cold running water. The common name Cobra Plant comes from how its tubular leaves resemble a rearing cobra. The botanical illustration is our version of one from Die natürlichen Pflanzenfamilien, published 1887 – 1911. Adapted here in colour, the original is in black and white. Makes a great gift for a florist, botanist, biology professor, gardener, landscaper or anyone who loves plants and nature. You can change the background colour, if you’d like. Want this or a similar design on another item? Browse my BotanicalArt Shop.
