I sowed a bunch of vegetables today, so here's a picture of a cactus I started from seed about 20 years ago. I love seeing everyone's seed starting pictures ❤️, but I was in the mood to photograph this little cactus today. 🌱

Flowering now: Rhododendron jasminiflorum subsp. jasminiflorum, a vireya from peninsular Malaysia. Long, narrow, fragrant, white flowers point to pollination by sphinx moths. 🌱 🌴 I wrote a more detailed post about this cool plant on my blog: sweetgumandpines.wordpress.com/2025/02/20/t...

Sometimes when salvaging native plants from development sites I run out of containers. Luckily, damp leaves and a sword fern leaf makes a great little bag. Used this technique to salvage this little native rattlesnake plantain. 🌱 🌎

From February 25, 2024. Crocus thomasii. I planted 200 more of these little bulbs last October. Today the garden is covered in snow and we’ve had a week of sub-zero temps. I’m hopeful for what this spring will bring. 🌱

On Feb. 14th I try always to give honor to one of the greatest contributors to American democracy in our nation’s history, Frederick Douglass. Born into slavery, Douglass never knew his actual birthdate, and adopted Feb. 14th as the day. His penetrating insights about our country inspire me daily.

Incompetence in Washington puts every American at risk, no matter how you voted. No one should be happy that the DOGE team - the same folks who randomly published classified U.S. security information online today - wants access to your bank account & Social Security numbers.

Europe can’t rely on the strength of the transatlantic relationship to help contain Russia’s threat – it must lead from the front and be the true force of support that Ukraine needs. Not just for Ukraine’s sake, but for a free and sovereign Europe.

It is perfectly legal to know your rights and to educate others about them, too. EVERYONE in the United States, citizen or not, has rights. I will not allow this administration to intimidate us from helping you know about them. Here’s our shareable guide ⬇️: (pt. 1/2)
