City people think Honeysuckle makes pretty red berries you see in the margin; Good 'ole Boys know it takes over when you quit mowing; people who know their plants know it is a European invader!

4 out of 5 of the surviving Lupin #plants have flowered; one of them with multiple flower stalks. When I try this again I'll just make sure to plant the seeds in deep pots initially so their roots are happier and don't need transplanting.

A tall lupin flower is seen with it's reflection in a mirror. It's got lots of small red/purple flowers along a green stem and some unopened green bits at the top. Below it's got a bunch of green split leaves. The mirror has a faux-gilt frame.

I wandered around the botanical garden in Kraków for 3 hours last Friday, and the plants there were amazing 💚! While writing the alt texts, I learned that one of the plants is a "red hot cat tail" ❤️ and one is a kind of "foxtail fern" 🧡.
#flowers #plants

A red hot cat tail (acalypha hispida), with many long, pinkish-red bushy flowers hanging down. The plant also has big green leaves.

A zebra plant (goeppertia zebrina), with many striped leaves, that are very bright light green striped with very dark green sections in between, creating a beautiful contrast.

Pretty pink water lilies in dark brown water. The lily pads in different sizes are partially covering each other. In the middle is a nicely visible flower with multiple layers of pink petals surrounding the orange stamens. There are a few more (partially) visible flowers in the upper right.

A foxtail fern (asparagus densiflorus Meyerii), with many long, bushy, light green "tails" meandering outwards in all directions.

'Lost' for 170 years, rare plant recorded in Sri Lanka
Researchers have found a population of an extremely rare plant species, last recorded in Sri Lanka in 1855, growing in a lowland forest fragment along the Sitawaka Ganga River. Documenting the finding in a recent study, researchers write that the plant, Indianthus virgatus, while officially listed as critically endangered in Sri Lanka, was presumed possibly […]

Rare palm tree rediscovered in Madagascar after nearly 100 years
Researchers have tracked down 28 individuals of a palm tree species last recorded in Madagascar nearly 100 years ago. Nearly every tree of the species, Ravenea latisecta, was found within four protected areas in the Andasibe-Mantadia region of Madagascar, according to a recent study. “Andasibe–Mantadia is one of Madagascar’s best-explored botanical regions, and Ravenea latisecta […]

Female reproductive structure on a common liverwort (Marchantia polymorpha). I'm hoping the area has a male because I'd very much like to see the yellow sporangia form. The end product looks very much like a mayapple. #liverworts #plants #botany #macrophotography

Common liverwort (Marchantia polymorpha) growing on the shady side of my house. The little cups are filled with wafer-shaped asexual buds called gemmae that get dispersed by rain droplets. The thallus is currently sending up reproductive structures so stay tuned for gender reveal (species is dioecious). #liverworts #plants #botany #nature #moss
