Phacelia grandiflora is from one of my favorite plant genera and is one of my favorites even from this genus. Despite how commonly it occurs through its range, P. grandiflora is limited to near-coastal regions and the south side of the Transverse Ranges through the lower third of California and a touch into Baja California. No two plants produce the same flower patterns – some deeply blue-purple, some pale, some with a dark center and pale tips. Growing up to about three feet tall, they thrive in disturbed areas and can on occasion dominate a space, though they usually coexist with other Phacelias such as P. brachyloba and P. cicutaria. The large flowers have a strange pungent odor (sweet, with a strong bias of burning rubber) and feature a prominent nectar cup. They are a favorite of native bees, particularly larger bumble bees which will make sure to pay thorough visits to each flower. The plants can produce numerous small seeds which will grow the following spring with very little water required to produce prolific and showy blooms.

Some Clintonia,
Clintonia umbellulata ,
Species limited to Appalachian mountains and Ilp/allegheny complex
I’ve only seen this species in acidic mesic woodland. I feel like this this species has open forest growth requirements for light as well but i’ve found the species hiding out under ferns many times at Red River Gorge. Auxier ridge has many examples of small clustered populations. These leaves are relatively fleshy and remind me of an intermediate texture between midland shooting star and showy orchis. Some people say that it reminds them of the basil rosette associated with wild columbo.

Learning to discriminate less in regards to where plants come from. I often get called a plant racist. Indigenous, native, local, exotic—these terms complicate nature. There’s beauty and aesthetic purpose in most plants, even if their wild ancestors came from 3 or 3,000km away. 🌳 West Australian Red Flowering Gum - Corymbia ficifolia. 🌳 Mountain Ash - Eucalyptus Regnans. 🌳 🌳 🌳 #seeds #nativeplants #indigenousplants #exotic #local #eucalyptus #eucalyptusregnans #corymbiaficifolia (at Cape Schanck) https://www.instagram.com/p/Cj8-eqTBzu0/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Woohoo, my native Elderberry seedlings and Crab Apple saplings are here! And they look great, good root structure, already budding out and ready to go in the ground. Hopefully weather holds this weekend so we can get them in the ground. #nofilter #nativeplants #elderberry #crabapple #virginianativeplants #fiveoaks #bedford county #virginiaforestry #dantesspirit (at Dante's Spirit) https://www.instagram.com/p/CpNytgJrHHg/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Salvia mellifera, black sage, is a perennial shrub in the mint/sage family native from central California down through the top of Baja California. It is part of the cast of plants present in coastal sage and chaparral habitat, thriving only in a specific range of rainfall in a mediterranean climate. The flowers host a variety of pollinators including butterflies, hummingbirds, and native bees and its seeds, like other Salvia species, are abundant and provide food for animals and birds. The fragrant leaves contain chemicals used by the Chumash to treat pain and a unique spicy honey is derived from the plant in the modern day.

I’d like to thank everyone who participated in donating to the native seed fund and helped make seed balls for the desert restoration project at the RA Ranch.

The Pink Evening Primrose also called Pink Ladies, Oenothera speciosa, is blooming gloriously in La Jolla right now. It is native to North America and I have seen it in Texas too, but here, where I found it growing in the front yards, its blooms were much bigger than in Austin. All flowers seem to be huge and their colors are very intense in Southern California’s coastal areas. This part of the United States simply offers ideal growing conditions to many plants! Wishing you a wonderful Friday! Hang in there, the weekend is near! 🇺🇦💙💛🕊🌻💔 #organicgardendreams #pinkeveningprimrose #pinkeveningprimroses #oenotheraspeciosa #pinkflowers #pinkflower #nativeplants #flowerphotography #flowerphoto #flowersofinstagram #pinkbloom #pinkblooms #gardening #zone10 #lajolla #southerncalifornia #gardening #fortheloveofflowers #flowerlover #flowersofinstagram #cheerfulpinkflowers (at La Jolla) https://www.instagram.com/p/CdOKHJWLiQ7/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
