Planting wildflowers along highways is not only a visually stunning choice but also a more sustainable and eco-friendly alternative to traditional grass. Wildflowers bring a burst of vibrant colors, attracting pollinators like bees and butterflies, contributing to the overall health of local ecosystems. This natural beauty creates a more pleasing environment for travelers and can even boost tourism as wildflower displays become a spectacle. Moreover, wildflowers require minimal maintenance, unlike grass, which needs constant mowing and upkeep, saving time, resources, and money in the long run.

Foraging for beautyberry. Pro tip: get a few leaves and crush them up a little in your hands. Tuck them into your socks, boots, belt, cuffs, wherever ticks might hitch a ride. The leaves will help deter them from getting too comfortable. You still need to do a full body tick check when you get home, but every little bit of deterrent helps. #foraging #nativeflora #americanbeautyberry #callicarpaamericana #ruralliving #swamplife #bayouhoodoo #witchgarden #rootworkersofinstagram #rootwork #seraphinstation #karmazain https://www.instagram.com/p/ChQqsmwr4TW/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

🌸 Detail of a new pink flannel flower painting I’ve been working on. Not 100% sure if it needs more work yet so I’m going to let it sit and come back to it in a few days.. or maybe weeks!

So obviously I missed the last drawtober prompt. And uhhh yeah we’ll see if I manage to get it done as well as the current one but yeah idk. Having less prompts was supposed to be easier but here we are lol. I just don’t do well with these prompts and drawing challenges I guess.

Anyway enjoy this strawberry bush. It doesn’t look like it belongs here does it? Indiana has a few native plants that don’t look like they should grow here but they do. Pawpaw look like tropical fruit. Prickly pear cactus is a cactus. And this thing looks like some kind of alien seed pod.

I worked 14 hours on the clock yesterday, so I'm sorry for everyone I haven't gotten back to. I'm at Uni all day today and I am exhausted. X.x I will get #shirocosmetics photos today or tomorrow, I swear! In the meantime, this is an unidentified flower I really like. I usually find them in swampy ditches here in Florida. They are never in flat, sandy fields. I don't know what they are but I want a million of them. #florida #native #wildlife #wildflowers #flora #nativeflora #identifythis #flowers #nativeflowers #nativeflorida #wetlands #relaxation #haha #notreally #superstressed #nosleep #nature #swampwitch #wetlandswitch #tampabay #centralflorida https://www.instagram.com/p/B2pJuZGAVNz/?igshid=9b6i4zs8qbh8
