About this listen
 When a shy, solitary orchid enthusiast brings home a withered rhizome from a far-off island, his quiet life blossoms into terror. Nurtured in a steamy hothouse, the plant unfurls pale, exquisite flowers—and releases a heady perfume that lulls its caretaker into helplessness as its questing tendrils seek more than water. What begins as wonder turns to suffocating dread in a tale that explores obsession, isolation, and the dangerous seductions of the natural world. Michael McGovern’s poised, atmospheric narration draws out the story’s mounting unease—the gentle routines of tea and greenhouse checks giving way to a breathless, life-or-death struggle—while evoking the creak of glass panes, the press of humid air, and the sweet reek of the uncanny bloom. Perfect for a single-sitting listen, this classic weird tale delivers a lingering chill for lovers of botanical horror, Victorian suspense, and elegant, slow-burn fright. Step into the greenhouse…and mind the roots.
