It's been raining all day. That makes time inside, by our woodstove, feel even warmer & cozier. Our indoor orchids are blooming again. I lightly dab their new flower buds, once they emerge, with raw lime or lemon juice, applied with a Q-tip. It encourages them to bloom faster. #Bloomscrolling #florespondence #orchids #IndoorGardening #IndoorPlants #houseplants #plants #botanical #flowers

Bloomscrolling, but you have to go outside. PocketPetal is a small game for walks. Snap any plant you pass and it joins your collection with a random rarity, Common to Mythic. Same odds for every plant, so a sidewalk weed can outrank a rose. The names come from image recognition and are often wrong, so the match % is always on screen and you can fix it. It's a game, not a field guide. iPhone for now: https://pocketpetal.com #Introduction #BloomScrolling #IndieDev #Plants

Marsh sun orchid (Thelymitra longiloba) in Croajingolong NP, East Gippsland, VIC. This plant has slightly wider petals and sepals than more typical 'star-like' flowering forms. Only found the one still out at this location where it can be easy to miss this species when they flower amongst a range of similar blue sun orchids. #Orchids #OzPlants #Biodiversity #Ecology #Botany #Photography #Spring #InTheField #Nature #BloomScrolling #EastGippsland #SunOrchids #Thelymitra
