Photos from the UW Greenhouse! They're open every Thursday (10am-4pm) or 2nd and 4th Saturday (10am-2pm). A friend wanted to show it to me when I moved here but it had just started construction and it just reopened this year! I got today off and decided to use it to see it for the first time.
Eulophia petersii, a desert-living orchid.
Welwitschia mirabilis, a desert conifer that keeps the same continually growing leaves for its long life.
Dioscorea elephantipes, which is the largest species of yam I'm currently aware of.
Some Pinguicula in flower.
Sinningia leuchotricha! I didn't realize these could get so big! These are cool members of the African violet family which have the softest, fuzziest leaves.
A huge Nepenthes pitcher.
Cordyline fruticosa
Lecanopteris deparioides, a fern with a weird blobby base! Apparently it houses ants to protect itself.
Hibiscus schizopetalus, the weirdest Hibiscus I have ever seen.

Ehee fantastic you get a few pink bitch facts
-Hosea Rustles when he walks. So much fuckin leaf hair. Clack clack of his heels as well. It's harder for him to be as stealthy as the others, he just has a loud presence.
-The plants I associate with him most are Cherry blossum and Cordyline fruticosa. Animal I associate him with is a snake
-Out of all the expansions, EoD affected him the most. HoT was a chance to well and truly prove himself and show his strong-will, PoF got him PUMPED cos he died but came back and still managed to kill a fucking god, whereas EoD? He was in unknown territory where people didn't even know who he was, AND then dealing with the fact that Rama existing was a distraction to him. Biggest blow to his ego was waiting in the ministry of transit for FORMS

Costa visits horticulturist Eric Chang at his home in Sydney to check out his spectacular tropical-inspired garden. Subscribe 🔔 http://ab.co/GA-subscribe
The stand-out feature is an incredible green wall – around 20 metres from end to end and two metres high.
The former engineer says each square metre requires about 30 plants – more than 1000 plants for the whole wall. There’s not much sun in this garden, so Eric has chosen shade tolerant plants such as anthuriums, staghorns, gingers and echeverias.
“You’ve got to select what’s really hardy – because that’s the key to your green wall,” he says. He’s placed succulents in a section of the wall which only has four hours of sun per day.
Eric also has some “mini” green walls in the garden. He says the smaller walls work well with just a few plant species. Each pot hooks onto mesh and has two holes to drip water down. Eric says Rhipsalis and Peperomia are “good friends” for a green wall.
Eric’s masterpiece can go two weeks between watering. He combines semi-automatic irrigation with some hand watering. He also sprays with a fertiliser high in nitrogen.
Eric is truly making the best of a small space, by building up – in a spectacular fashion! He has transported his love for the tropics to his little piece of Sydney.
“Never in my dreams did I think I would do something like this – achieve a really nice green space that’s a happy place for me.”
Featured Plants:
HELICONIA - Heliconia bihai ‘Yellow Dancer’
CORDYLINE - Cordyline fruticosa ‘Rubra’
URN PLANT - Aechmea fasciata
MOTH ORCHID - Phalaenopsis cv.
BLUE GINGER - Dichorisandra thyrsiflora
SEDUM - Sedum ‘Gold Mound’

Ep 284: Nightmarchers of Hawaii
"My family and I might be safe from the Night Marchers because our ancestor was the Kauai ali’i and Kamehameha’s adviser, Chief Kai’iana. Ka’iana died at the Battle of Nu’uanu and may walk with the procession." -- Tonight's guest, Kamuela Kaneshiro
Description:
Those who have visited Hawaii have experienced its natural beauty, soothing lifestyle, and the charm and friendliness of the inhabitants. However, only a select few may have encountered what the locals know and revere – the supernatural entities and legends that are still active and enduring. Some, like seeing "Madame Pele," can invigorate awe and wonder, while others can be terrifying. One of the latter and seemingly more prevalent is encountering the Night Marchers. They usually appear as a column of warriors floating above the ground along a predetermined path, weapons or torches in hand. Many report only hearing their presence in the form of unexplainable beating drums or the ghostly blowing of a conch shell. And just seeing them, it's said, ensures a disappearance or violent death to the witness if the proper respect isn't paid in their presence. But what is their origin story, and what do they want? Are they soldiers defeated by King Kamehameha I advancing towards a counterattack or seeking revenge? Or are they keepers and enforcers of ancient Hawaiian cultural laws and mores? To help us explore these questions and relay some of his personal experiences, tonight's guest is Kamuela "Kamu" Kaneshiro. As a native Hawaiian, content creator, and podcaster for 20 years, Kamu has extensive knowledge of the lore and heritage of his homeland. His royal lineage might even protect him from these fearsome spectral guardians. Join us for a fascinating discussion as we warily watch for the Night Marchers of Hawaii.

kī / ti: Cordyline fruticosa, a native shrub used for thatching, food wrappers, hula skirts, sandals; alcohol is distilled from the roots
It was planted around one's hale or house to ward off evil spirits. It was plentiful because it would be used in cooking and aesthetically for serving food or beautifying a display of any kind. Soaked in cool water and applied to the forehead would immediately chase away a head ache. If worn around you neck it would immediately cool the entire body. To give a ti leaf lei is a sign of great respect. It is often worn at graduations, weddings and other ceremonial events. It can also be a sign of something lasting.
In ancient Hawaiʻi the plant was thought to have great spiritual power; only kahuna (shamans) and aliʻi (chiefs) were able to wear leaves around their necks during certain ritual activities. Ti was sacred to the god of fertility and agriculture Lono, and the goddess of the forest and the hula dance, Laka. Ti leaves were also used to make lei, and to outline borders between properties it was also planted at the corners of the home to keep evil spirits away. To this day some Hawaiians plant tī near their houses to bring good luck. The leaves are also used for lava sledding. A number of leaves are lashed together and people ride down hills on them. The leaves were also used to make items of clothing including skirts worn in dance performances. The Hawaiian hula skirt is a dense skirt with an opaque layer of at least fifty green leaves and the bottom (top of the leaves) shaved flat.
In Hawaii, the roots mixed with water and fermented are also distilled into an alcoholic beverage known as ʻŌkolehao. It's forerunner was a fermented ti root beverage or beer. When distillation techniques were introduced by English seamen in 1790, it was distilled into a highly alcoholic spirit.
