My Review of Decurrent Trees
Just because it’s winter doesn’t mean there aren’t plenty of plants to look at. Deciduous trees and shrubs become particularly interesting during the winter months with their exposed branches and their growth habits made more obvious. The beauty of a tree’s “skeletal” structure is revealed when it’s stripped of its leaves and set against a winter sky. Winter is also a great time to prune certain…

Plant of the Day
Saturday 2 September 2023
On this stone wall a colony of Asplenium scolopendrium (hart's-tongue fern) have established along with a Fuchsia magellanica (hardy fuchsia). This hardy fern is normally found growing in damp, shady places in woodlands.

hi all, we've been pretty inactive on here since moving to an apartment and not being able to process specimens (diaph or degreasing, mac, and burial) like we did when we had a yard and a sink that could handle a little lye, but we might start trying out oxidation sometime in the near future : ) we will be doing a lot of classwork + internship work in the spring semester and also getting isopods (A. nasatum "rust") + springtails, so we will be quite busy then, but hopefully we will get the opportunity to work on more bone projects as well : )
we've been doing a lot more art of various types in the meantime, including painting, drawing, cyanotype printing, and crochet, if these are interesting to you please consider checking out our art blog @pastinawitheggs !
we hope to continue this blog with more original projects in the near future, and we appreciate the lovely community you all have welcomed us into on here!

reminder that native plant purity kills opportunities for urban horticulture
#i'm a horticulture major with a huge hard on for native plants and resilient landscapes#and a lot of urban landscapes need non-native plants to be resilient#trees that can survive with few resources and not enough space and high reflective heat#plants that don't need the same number of cold days for germination#plants that can fill in the particular niche and food source of natives that get decimated by non-native pests that make it to the area#(of course we have to keep out invasives because they don't do anyone any good)#(don't take this as me promoting invasives)#species diversity is so important#arguably moreso than native purity#environments are so entirely different today than they were when the majority of “native” plants evolved#those plants might be native to the area#but not to the conditions and the current environments#of where we're trying to place them#so while yes#it's important that we continue planting natives in order to promote native insect/bird/mammal/etc. species#like planting your native milkweed for monarchs and other species#planting a wide diversity of plants is crazy important#also our human built environments also should be satisfying to HUMANS#so you can build your natives only landscapes and shit#and some will be done crazy fucking well and beautifully#but if we want people to plant more and engage more with the environment then we have to cater to everybody's desires for their environment#and if that requires a mix of native and non-native plants#useful and “useless”#tidy and messy#then so fucking be it#sorry i'm a landscape design major and I have VERY strong feelings about this#very strong feelings about many things relating to plants in urban and residential environments#do NOT mistake me for one of those boring-ass copy-paste companies though i'll kms

Weeds of Boise: Boise State University Campus, part two
In part one of this two part series, I introduced you to the Boise State University campus, located in the heart of Boise, Idaho. I’ve been spending the past year walking the campus and cataloging the weeds that I find there. Boise has a fairly mild climate compared to the rest of Idaho, so weeds are generally easy to find just about any time of year. What weeds are present depends on what time…

Plant of the Day
Monday 20 November 2023
This planting of Liquidambar styraciflua (sweet gum, American sweet gum, satin walnut) made a great addition to this car park. This deciduous tree has maple-like leaves but these grow alternately on the twigs rather than the opposite placement of Acer species (maple).
