I was reading The Da Vinci Code and wasn’t really getting the sexual symbolism of the Rose.
Then I walked into a grocery store and saw a giant poster of a Rose in the floral department.
Then I got it, that poster suddenly seemed pornographic.
And that’s the joke, she’s best known for her often shockingly sexual looking flowers, so the lit has to keep up! Ha! I love this strip especially when Zonk’s talking to flowers - too cool that they ‘speak’ to him, too.
Cean, you mean to say that YOU don’t hear the flowers?
Ya gots ta listen, man!
Open up them ears, dig the flowers and other flora and fauna.
Mmmmm, nature!

Georgia O’Keefe was noted for her paintings of arid desert landscapes and sun-bleached cattle skulls.
Fat chance of those bulbs blooming!

@Susan: just like the ones I plant here in acid rocky &/or clay soil full of voles and such… if I plant 100 bulbs I’m lucky to get 6 blooms…..

@ Susan001, Georgia O’Keefe was far more famous for her highly sensualized paintings of flowers than she was for her desert scenes.

Given Zonk’s long known horticultural skills, why doesn’t he get a job in a nursery, instead of McFriendly’s?

As I recall, Zonker grows other “flowers”, too….

Doc Toon, if you think a Rose is porn, you really should see what playboy did with an Orchid in one of it’s magazines one time.

A flower is in fact the sexual organ of a plant.
