Some native plants arrived today which I will use to make a bit of hedgerow and ferns for a shady bit of the garden. Lieve had to inspect everything of course. I'm still a bit ill so will have do everything in bits resting in between.

Good morning from some fall flowers 🌱💛
#nativeplants #pollinatorgarden #bloomscrolling

A single aster bloom……. Soon there will be thousands everywhere……and the world will be mine (insert evil handwringing)

A smattering of purple blooming Blue Mist flowers in my front yard. Soon there will be intermingled aster and it will be so beautiful I will stand staring at it for an uncomfortable amount of time from the perspective of my neighbors.

An Oak Tree a Day
Why do we let this happen? A developer builds a shopping center among protected trees, promising that they will conserve & save. This shopping center has already lost one heritage tree & the other 2 are being held up by cables after bad pruning. California #nativePlants #nature

A view of an old valley oak in a raised planter between a parking lot and a restaurant with red tiled roofs. . All the lower branches have been removed giving it a pompom affect. White pvc tubes cover heavy cables bracing up the tree. The sky is blue with a few wispy clouds.

Looking up at the crisscrossing of cables wrapped around the furrowed bark.

More cables and a closer look at the branches that are wrapped evenly with strings of lights. Scars where branches were removed are numerous.

A closer look at the witches broom of many small branches where bad cuts were made.

🌼 tall thoroughwort 🌿
Eupatorium altissimum

#nativeplants #ecoregion71

a close look at a small bunch of around a dozen and a half small composite flowers, a small part of a much larger panicle. the flowerheads have just a few disk florets and no ray florets, and their sides are lined with several green phyllaries densely covered in a frosty-looking fuzz of tiny white hairs. white bristles stick up around the disk florets, some of which are blooming, others not yet. the disks have tubular white corollas with five gently spreading lobes. in the center of the corolla of each blooming floret there is a purple tube formed by fused anthers which barely sticks out beyond the mouth of the floret. a white style grows through the center of the stamen tube and extends much further out, longer beyond the corolla than the corolla's whole length. after escaping the stamen tube, the style splits in two.

a terminal panicle of dozens of small, white, diskoid composite flowers. the base of the flowerheads are lined with light green phyllaries that appear frosty due to their dense coat of tiny white hairs. the light green branching stems that bear the flowerheads are similarly coated in tiny hairs. towards the tips, these stems are green, but lower down they are somewhat reddish. a few of the thoroughwort's light green, lance-shaped leaves are visible here too.

tall thoroughwort standing around shoulder-high in a dry grassy savanna with some trees in the background. the two nearer thoroughworts are leaning towards the viewer & to the left, while one i the back to the right stands more erect. their stems are lined with opposite leaves, light green and lance-shaped with three distinct parallel veins running from base to tip. large, loose terminal panicles cap each of the throughworts' main stems; there are also some smaller axillary panicles at upper leaf nodes. the flowers are small and cylindrical, with light green bases and tiny white florets on top.

Did you know the little seeds inside the pods of Jewelweed are a beautiful Robin's egg blue under their dark skin? They are also edible when skinned and taste like walnuts. #NativePlants

A person's palm holding 3 brown and one light blue oval seeds composes the lower half of the photo. The upper half is green foliage and orange tubular flowers of a Jewelweed plant.
