trump administration:

me: what could possibly go wrong

what went wrong:

There’s a reason why those regulations were in place, to protect consumers from shit like this. To no surprise, this administration’s policies are not for the protection of it’s people-they serve the interests of the large corporations-not for the people, not for America.

It should also be noted that these companies could still follow the now-repealed safety regulations. They’re showing their colors as bastards by immediately jumping on all this deregulation to save a few bucks at the cost of consumers’ health and well-being. Any of the people running these companies could take the easiest moral stance and literally save lives, and they adamantly refuse to do so because they are literal monsters who value capital over lives

I’m doing a skunk cabbage phenology study and look at this, two spathes emerging already!

succulent-journal:

I set up the bee and butterfly water station finally. I hot glued the rocks around the edge for more landing spots for them and for aesthetics.

I love these two plants, the colours are so different than many of other succulents we own. The pink, white and bluey-green one is especially cute

Tales from the garden centre

regnum-plantae:

customer: About 2 months ago I bought a standard weeping juniper, it’s going all brown, what’s happening?

me: do you have a photo? no? ok *starts asking questions and listing all the reasons why a juniper could suddenly go brown*

customer: I don’t know, you should really come see it

me, half a step in their garden: that’s not a juniper, it’s a perfectly healthy larch…Larix decidua…it’s deciduous….and it’s autumn…

customer, looking at the name tag still on the plant: oh

This is what a Larix decidua, Pinaceae looks like right now. Being a deciduous conifer, it first goes through some dramatic colour changes and then sheds its needles, which grow back a bright green the following spring.

New leaves!

plantamania:

Progress of my Sedum cremnosedum ‘little gem’ that I inherited from my mother after I moved to a new state! I love him so much! I know he is pretty etiolated, but my apartment is west-facing and it sucks, but there isn’t much I can do about it. I can’t afford a grow light either because I can’t afford to constantly go over on my power bill in my apt (which I already do without the presence of a grow light) 😦

I just stuck this guy in the corner of my windowsill and just watered him weekly and let him do his thing and he exploded over 4 months! I’m so proud :’)

doubleplusunlucky:

This little Turbinicarpus jauernigii hasn’t stopped blooming since late October, but this is the first time it’s produced two flowers at once. I’d like to think that it’s just responding really well to the inorganic soil mix I repotted it into last year, but this plant has always bloomed enthusiastically since it was a gumball-sized seedling so I don’t think I can take any of the credit.

This species is 80% taproot, so as soon as it’s done putting on as show and I reduce watering, it’ll withdraw down to the soil level and disguise itself as a particularly lumpy pebble until next year.
