Well isn't this a pleasant surprise! One of my indoor succulents is blooming for the first time in... 5 years or something? If you're looking at this flower and thinking "by Jove, that looks suspiciously like Ohio Spiderwort (Tradescantia ohiens
I found a Maple tree bleeding beads of liquid sunlight; last year's hot summer rays sweetly condensed, refracting this day's warming spring beams in double brightness. I learned that in the Ojibwe language, there is a 5th season in-between winter (

So excited to have found this plant. There's a pretty special feeling when you actually find a particular species for the first time and in an unfamiliar location. Hard to describe, but joy and a rush of adrenaline are definitely part of it. Highly r
The part of this that I can't share with you, but which is really the best part, is the fragrance of the flower. It's not really like the aroma of a citrus fruit, maybe a little like the oils in orange zest, but way sweeter and lighter, bright, sharp
My nano aquarium is 3.5 years old now and the ecology in this tank is starting to get weird. The tank got a bit of green hair algae a few months ago which was a problem of underlying nutrient imbalances. I helped shift that balance by adding nutri
