Spring things! 🌸 I love the look of these willow catkins, but it's no wonder why pollinators love them too 🐝 Catkins are made of lots of tiny flowers that provide nectar and pollen for insects before most other plants begin flowering 🦋 Willows are also fantastic host plants for lots of insect species and many varieties have a good deal of moisture tolerance, which means you can grow them in rain gardens!💧 #willowtree #plantid #pollinatorgarden
I love the smell of this tree right now. Young leaves, young flower buds and flowers are edible and good in salads. Anyone know? #bourneoutside #leavenotrace #inthesticks #outdoors #rhinotenacity #plantid 😉

🌿 Lilac (Syringa vulgaris) is a lovely springtime flowering tree with a hypnotic scent and in addition to its loveliness, you may be surprised to learn Lilac has edible and medicinal properties! 🌿Lilac is a perennial member of the Oleaceae or Olive Family. Lilac is edible. The flowers are very pretty added to salads and to flavor waters. It makes an incredibly fragrant, floral honey as well. 🌿Lilac has been used historically in the treatment of such things as malaria, periodic type of infections, and fevers. Topically, Lilac's astringent properties are tightening to pores and complimentary to the complexion. Lilac has been used to heal other skin conditions such as cuts and scrapes. 🌿This is just some of the Magick that is Lilac! #greengirl #greengirlherbs #iamthegreengirl #plantid #healingplants #herbs #herbal #herbalism #wildfoods #wildfood #foraging #wildfoodforaging #lilac #syringa #herbalist #herbalistsofig #plantsheal #natureheal #healthyliving #local #hudsonvalley #hudsonvalleysmallbiz

POST ABOUT EVENTBRITE @eventbrite for anyone trying to purchase tickets in the near future PLZ REACH OUT TO ME DIRECTLY! Eventbrite is the organizing I have been using for the last year or so for purchasing tickets to my classes. I am going to be completely boycotting them as their policies around customer service are f’ing terrible. I no longer have access to my account, yet people can still purchase tickets. If you come across my eventbrite page, please please please email me ([email protected]) to register for the class you are interested in. They have also stopped emailing me when folks register for classes as well. So if you have purchased a ticket to one of my classes within the past few days, it would be GREAT if you could email me and let me know!!!!!

Common Star Lilly, or Sand Lilly, or Leucocrinum montanum. It is in the Asparagaceae, and subfamily Agavoideae or the asparagus family. Previously the flower has been classified in the Liliaceae family or the Lilly family. It is still currently a debate. 📍It can be found in prairies, sagebrush grasslands, and mountain meadows throughout the west and down through Nebraska. 🔸6 petals 🔸 native to western states and is a perennial. 🔸Once the plant is done blooming in early summer the entire top part of the plant withers away. 🔸 Unique seed dispersal technique- they have a floral tube that comes from the ground, which is the ovary. The new floral buds push the seeds through the tI’ve dispersing the seeds! 🔹I found several sources saying that the roots are edible and can make a poultice to reduce swelling of wounds however I didn’t find anything like that in any plant id books I checked. #commonstarlilly #coloradowildflowers #plantid #asparagusfamily

🌿 Horsetail (Equisetum arvense) emerging. This ancient plant is often called a "living fossil" and is part of a family of plants that once towered over the landscape in vast forests thriving in what is known as the Devonian Period, 350 million years ago. 🌿 This highly recognizable plant has high silica contents and a history of use for everything from joint health to scouring pots and pans earning it another common name, "scouring rush". #greengirl #greengirlherbs #iamthegreengirl #Horsetail #equisetum #plantid #plantidentification #herbalclasses #onlineherbalclasses #plantlove #plantspirithealer #shamanicherbalism

Probably one of the most foraged plants found in the woodland . As with many plants so deeply connected to mankind it has a few names Wild Garlic , Ramsons, Bear Garlic etc. Caution must be observed when foraging to avoid some of its neighbours such as Arum / Lords and Ladies . Studying the leaves , flowers and stems , let alone the powerful scent allow for easy identification. A fantastic ingredient in soups , pestos , salads and many other wild spring delicacies. Some great health benefits with high levels of Vitamin C , Alliin and Methiin. Often found in woodland - Ancient woodland dating back to the 17th century .

Elephantopus scaber. Asteraceae. Vernonieae. Elephant's foot in English, Tapak liman in bahasa Indonesia. This species is native to tropical old world including Indonesia. This species is flowering at the peak of drought season. Report says that the plant has flowering period between August to late October. In Western Java, the plant was observed that has peak flowering period in August and September. The plant has only vegetative organ outside the flowering phase. Based on phenology study, the seeds germinate in late rainy season. It will grow into mature and flowering less than a year after germinate. The cycle will repeated from vegetative to generative respectively every year, but occasionally depend on local temperature and climate change issue. #Elephantopus #Vernonieae #Asteraceae #Angiosperm #Plant #Flower #Tumbuhan #Bunga #Botany #Biology #Phenology #Conservation #Nature #Photography #PlantPhotography #FlowerPhotography #Nikon #D5600 #PlantID #Story #PlantoftheDay

Today I was parked near an unmowed area beside a large parking lot next to a local hospital, and there were a ton of these beautiful, daisy-like "weeds" growing in this obviously completely ignored area, so I yanked some out of the ground. I got good roots when I yanked them up, so I took them home, trimmed them back to a few inches tall, planted them in my sunniest flower bed, and gave them a good watering to - I hope - help them root where I've planted them. Can anyone tell me what these lovely wildflowers are? We are located in East Tennessee.

Did you know WILD VIOLETS (Viola genus) are EDIBLE? That's right! You can eat the flowers and leaves, both packed with Vitamin A and C. Not only are they the cutest weed to invade your grass lawn, the flowers also taste pretty good too! The leaves are fairly bitter….but to each their own. Make sure to rinse them off and only collect them from areas that are chemical-free. They're also perennials, so as long as you don't pull them out by the root, they'll come back every year ;) I personally love these early spring boomers and am experimenting with using them as a native ground cover to replace my lawn. There's no need to mow them, and they provide food for the pollinators 🐝 #wildviolet #nativeflowers #edibleflowers #ediblegarden #viola #plantid #foraging #groundcover #springflowers #nativegardening #nativelandscape #lawnalternative #floweridentification #flower #ohioflora #nativeplants #nature #edible #weeding #forage #salad #themoreyouknow #nativeperennials #nograss #spring #nativegroundcover #education #funfacts

Anyone have a good starting place on identifying opuntias? I happened across this nice habitat shot from way back when and still have no idea what this is (those fruits look distinct thought and worth a second look). I like the dichotomy in this picture of the very plump typically desert associated prickly pear with a nice intact pine cone nestled against it, and the ponderosa's towering in the background. #cacti #opuntia #plantid #ponderosa #pinecone #volcanicstone #niche
STINKNET is still in bloom! 🏵️ Stinknet is an invasive and non-native plant that is a fire hazard and public health hazard all in one. It has a very strong aroma when pulled or damaged. Many people are sensitive to its smell, so please take care! How do you identify it? Take a look at this checklist: Does it have yellow, globe-like flower with no petals? ✅ Does it have small, carrot-like leaves? ✅ Does it have a strong smell? ✅ If you answer all yes - it's likely STINKNET and it's smart to pull it up! Protect the Sonoran Desert and yourself from this invasive, noxious weed. 🌵 You can report cases of stinknet in Pima County at http://stinknet.org! #SonoranDesert #SonoranDesertProtection #PlantID #StinkNet #Invasive #Plants #Weeds

Does this flower look familiar? 🤔 Meet the Partridge pea (Chamaecrista fasciculata)! If it's ringing a bell in your mind, it should! We've been planting this at most of our recent volunteer restoration events around South Florida, and for good reason! This Florida native species is frequently found in pinelands and coastal uplands. It has low nutritional requirements & a high drought tolerance, making it the perfect plant for our beach dunes. Looking to plant this beauty in your own garden? Partridge pea tends to establish itself quickly, it's a prolific self-seeder and it's also fairly salt tolerant. It's also a nitrogen-fixer, so it may improve and enrich soils, allowing for the introduction of more demanding plants into your landscape!

🌸 Do you have a relationship with Magnolia (Magnolia officinalis)? We'd love for you to share any of your plant stories or medicine making adventure with us in the comments below. 🌸 In Traditional Chinese Medicine, Magnolia flowers are known as Xin Yi Hua and are associated with the lung and stomach meridians. 🌸 Some people enjoy magnolia blossoms pickled, or as syrup, used to decorate desserts! 🌸 Of course, knowing your own plant key, and experimenting with species (they can have hugely differing tastes) is key in foraging this shrub/tree that is used as a decorative accent in urban areas. . . . #flowersmakemesmile #flowersofinstagrammy #flowersoftheworld #wildcrafted #wildcraftedherbs #forager #foragers #foragersofinstagram #wildharvest #wildharvested #foraging #wildmedicine #herbalmedicinemaking #plantwalk #wildplants #wildplant #wildplantsofinstagram #plantidentification #wildrosecollege #plantid #botany #botanyphotography #botanylovers #botanylife #springplants #signsofspring #springflower #springflowersmakemehappy #thebotanicalseries

Today has been themed: removing herb Bennett (swipe for ID), and of course dandelions and alkanets! Again, these can all be kept in some areas of the garden but for today's clients they really needed to be removed so as to not completely smother everything else. It's quite hard going at the moment with a lot of cold wind and rain, but I'm living for the moments where the sun comes out and I get to take my coat off! Still April, I keep reminding myself. And there is merit in all the months. Smelling lilac, looking at tiny flowers, seeing the lavender coming back to life, and watching the acers go wild in the wind are all very nourishing (despite the cold!) Xxx

Petalostigma Triloculare, also known as Long-leaved bitter bark or Quinine Berry is a dry rainforest tree of eastern Australia growing more commonly in sandy soil derived from granite and sandstone. The fruit matures from March to October and opens explosively, throwing out fragments of the fruit as far as four metres, and scattering the seeds. The fruit and leaves of this plant have been used by many different Aboriginal groups historically as an antibacterial, antifungal and contraceptive agent, and modern science backs these findings. I’ve nibbled at the fruit and it wasn’t a great experience due to the extremely bitter taste. Although edible, I do not recommend. It has been said tonic water can be made using the fruit Once known as Petalostigma quadriloculare var. glabrescens, Petalostigma glabrescens, Petalostigma quadriloculare var. glabrescens, it is now normally called Petalostigma triloculare, or just long leaved bitter bark/Quinine berry ✨ • #petalostigmatriloculare #longleavedbitterbark #sunshinecoast #easternaustralia #rainforestplants #bitterfruit #plantid #australiannatives #aussienativeplants #planteducation #nativespecies #natureexploration #quinineberry
Earth Day 2024 🌎 Few years ago, I visited an island 🏝️ in Hong Kong, and I am going to share some of the photos & experiences here today😆 The island 🏝️- Yim Tin Tsai (it literally means ‘Little Salt Pan’ in Cantonese). It used to be a place that famous for salt making 🧂 What makes salt that precious in 300 years ago? They preserve food nicely and there’s no fridge at that time~ And there are several things that really draw my attentions - The texture/ hard landscape patterns & colour of the massive salt pan - Combinations of traditional art and craft with the existing landscape contexts - And of course… it’s plant!! 😍 Kandelia obovata 🌱🔎 It’s a common mangrove plant species in Hong Kong. What’s special about it? ✨ It’s is reproduced by vivipary (it means the seeds of plants will germinate when it’s still attaching the fruit; and no matter does the fruit attach the original plant or not). It can resist with wind and costal wave 🌊. Although it is flooded by water most of the time, salt cannot get into the 🌱itself 😲 Plant research: Hong Kong Wetland Park (HKWP)|| Site research: HK tourism board Image reference: the close up photo of Kandelia (from HKWP)|| other photos were taken in summer☀️2021 #earthday #earthdaycelebration #earthday2024 #plantid #yimtintsai #鹽田梓

Day 163 • Lysimachia arvensis • Scarlet Pimpernel • Native to Europe, Western Asia, and North Africa • Identification Tips: Low-growing creeping plant with soft, bright green leaves and brightly-colored flowers, often red/orange but can also be blue or pink. • Fun Fact: Scarlet pimpernels appear in Tolkien’s LOTR books
During the spring work party we got a few more flat tent sites set up for these nice bell tents we have planned for some of the students in upcoming workshops. We regularly collect feedback at the end of every class and one thing we were finding was that there were often students who regretted not taking advantage of the camping opportunity. Some of the reasons they cited were not having experience or gear, not knowing what to expect or what else they'd need to bring, and so forth. As a result of this feedback Natalie decided to offer an option where carpentry students at the paint for campus could choose to have at tent set up for them for a flat per-class fee, and we made a detail video providing more footage of the campus facilities and options for lodging. We hoped this might help prospective students to see and understand more about what the camping experience would be like for them, and feel more confident they'd know what to bring (or not need to bring) as they make decisions planning their trip. That video, "Planning Your Trip," is available on our youtube channel and is on our website (scroll down and click this image at our bio-link to check it out): https://www.wildabundance.net/planning-your-trip/ Since making this video added several more of these nice bell tents, and in January a handful of folks did in fact book a tent to stay in during their carpentry or tiny house workshop this year, so we're excited to be opening up the camping opportunity to people who may have otherwise booked a hotel! Another neat project during the work party was putting up some pretty little string lights over a path in the woods so there's a little more ease and atmosphere walking between the campsites and the shower at night.
Happy Sunday Funday! Spring is looking beautiful and hopefully you are all finding the time to spend enjoy and working with your green spaces. This beautiful west coast native is in the Ericaceae family. It is very well liked for it's trunk, offering a variety of reds and smooth texture in its younger bark. As one of the largest species amongst it's genus it has an easy time standing out. It can be easily impacted by fire given its thin bark, however they are known to dominate post-fire vegetation with their vigorous growth. #SundayFunday #PlantID #PlantAmnesty #Identification #Environment #Education
Leaf arrangement is how the leaves are attached to the stem. Most field guides will have you key out species based on this. Also, you can sometimes tell lookalikes apart because they'll have different leaf arrangement even if other parts of the plant look similar. #botanybasics #plantid #leafarrangement
Little volunteer in the garden, and I have no idea what it is. Google has failed me. IG plant people- anyone know what this is? 🙏🏻♥️✨️ #love #plant #plantid #plantidentifier #plantidentification #whatplantisthis #nys #zone6 #April #selfseeded #planthelp #garden #gardening #raisedbeds #organicgarden #volunteerplants #pinkflower #serratedleaf #growsomethinglovely #flower #flowers #bloom
