What's it called on Darkover when those hallucinogenic flowers bloom during a period of high winds and folks at some distance wind up tripping? "Ghostwind" or something? Thought of that because as I was typing my previous entry, I glanced out the window at a tree being bent over quite a bit by wind, and my sinuses and the roof of my mouth are an itchy uncomfortable mess. I wonder what the pollen count is this morning. (I guess the connection to the hallucinogenic plants on Darkover is the very strange dream I'd just woken up out of.)

It is Darkover I'm thinking of, right?

It is Darkover.
It is the kireseth flower, also called the 'Golden Bell' (Cleindori? Too laxy to leave my chair to go to the bookcase.)

I was asking what they called the phenomenon when the wind carries the pollen to populated areas, actually, but the name of the flower is good to know too. I'm pretty sure all my MZB books are out of reach in the basement. (I so look forward to the day I get all my books up on shelves, a single layer deep and alphabetized, again.)
