Salix discolor (American pussy willow)

The catkins of this pussy willow (Salix discolor) is another sure sign of early spring and they're the only flower I can think of that wears a fur coat. Pussy willows use these silky fibers as insulation to keep their catkins protected in late winter. This species is native to North America in a wide band that runs, coast-to-coast, through southern Canada and the northern lower United States.

Plants know when to flower by measuring the air temperature and the length of day. A brief warm period in the winter will not be enough for pussy willows- they need longer days too. Then, when the timing is perfect - boom they bloom!

As with so many spring flowering trees, willows produce flowers before they leaf-out. Male and female catkins grow on different plants. The appearance of yellow anthers indicates that this one is a boy and it's just about to start producing pollen. Willows are insect-pollinated and this means that hungry worker bees will soon wake up and these pussy willows will immediately get their full attention.

Ruyak seems like he'd be a great chef with his ability to sniff out herbs/spices and with how patient he is with cooking 🤤. Will there be more kanai cooking/baking/drink making in upcoming books?

yes! He's an excellent cook, though you have to be careful because Kanai don't worry much about things like bones or bits of wood and bark and stuff in their food. I'm afraid the above sentiment would be quite accurate. If Ruyak made porridge it would taste incredible but it would have like, fragrant sticks and leaves all up in it, or an entire trout, for some reason.

#tmatb #ask #trout porridge #yep that's a thing now I've decided #Kanai porridge recipe: fen flour willow catkins honey and trout #seriously delicious but deeply weird
