#florespondence

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

New York #aster for #FlowerFriday My mum wanted to get rid of a bunch of them, so she gave me dozens of small plants in spring. Not all of them made it, but the rest are now in bloom. #NeubelgischeAster #NeubelgienHerbstaster #GlattblattAster #SymphyotrichumNoviBelgii #NewYorkAster #MichaelmasDaisy #flower #Blume #Blumen #flowers #nature #Natur #florespondence #bloomScrolling

One of a few planters in front of VGH. The other 2 are the ones Mom wants to deadhead - they're in rough shape. #ScenesFromTheHospital #Bloomscrolling #florespondence #Autumn #flowers

Acmispon prostratus (Beach Lotus, Nutall's Acmispon) is a rare California native plant in the pea family (Fabaceae) that is threatened and endangered due to habitat lost to coastal development. Imagine my excitement when I unexpectedly found it growing in a coastal dune restoration area! #NaturePhotography #CloseUp #BloomScrolling #NativePlants #RarePlants #Plants #California #SanDiego #CANativePlants #Florespondence #Yellow #Herbs #Lotus #Threatened #Endangered #Photography #Conservation

Non-native Centaurea melitensis (Tocalote or Maltese Star Thistle), an annual herb native to the Mediterranean region of Europe and Africa. Interestingly, this plant is considered rare on the Maltese islands. Photographed at the Manchester Preserve, Encinitas, California. https://photos.alex-kunz.com/-/galleries/photo-archive/plant-archives/introduced-plants-in-san-diego-county/-/medias/019fa004-7a3a-7379-b8d4-5910246f2bce #NaturePhotography #BloomScrolling #Flowers #Florespondence #CloseUp #Herbs #Malta #California #SanDiego

PLANT SEX! Clematis lasiantha (Pipestem Clematis) has separate male and female flowers. In this photo are the male flowers, with many pollen-producing free stamens. The counterpart are the pistillate (female) flowers (not in the photo). Photographed in a part of the San Mateo Canyon Wilderness that's in Riverside County, but the plant also grows in San Diego County. #NaturePhotography #BloomScrolling #Plants #NativePlants #Florespondence #CloseUp #SanDiego #California #Flowers

Meet Eriodictyon parryi, aka Poodle-Dog Bush. Pretty, but touching the leaf or stem of this plant will cause severe skin irritation and unfortunately, the inflorescence (flower) looks very similar to other plants also in the Eriodyction genus. (the clear giveaway to identify Poodle-Dog Bush are the leaves.) #Flowers #NaturePhotography #Plants #NativePlants #BloomScrolling #Florespondence #CloseUp #SanDiego #LagunaMountains #California #Irritant

Solanum americanum (American Black, Common, Small Flowered or White Nightshade) is an herb in the nightshade family (Solanaceae) that can be annual or perennial. Photographed near Ramona in San Diego County, California in May 2022. The two common names American Black Nightshade and White Nightshade might contradict each other. However, the "black" refers to the ripe fruit (a berry, unripe it is green), and the "white" refers to the flower itself. #Wildflowers #BloomScrolling #NaturePhotography #CloseUp #Florespondence #SanDiego #California #NativePlants #MacroPhotography #Macro #Nature #Flowers #Plants #Herbs
