#gardening #garden #figs Does anyone grow Col de Dama figs? I got a lot of new fig cuttings this year and this is supposed to be CDD mutante but it looks more like gigante. It was rainy and ripe figs needed to get pulled but aren’t they supposed to be more striped?

On my walk back from voting, I saw an American persimmon tree I had never noticed before in a public park. It’s the tallest and oldest Am persimmon I’ve ever seen, it has to be over 40ft. The fruit has strong notes of cinnamon and honey. This feels like a sign. #nativeplants #gardening
#gardening #jardin #garten #garden I grew this pomegranate from seed!! Pomegranates don’t come true from seed but seeds don’t produce vastly inferior fruit like the way apples do. So I get naming rights. What should I call it? Was thinking PommyPomPom Sparkle Unicorn Puppy
#nativeplants #gardening #jardin #garten #garden #bloomscrolling #FleurisTonFil Devil’s claw update (Proboscidea louisianica) Recipe: Turtle Isand by Sean Sherman p.169. Plants are recovering after bunnies rampaged the raised bed and I finally got some young pods after saving seeds for next year.
Nkruma Tenten okra flowers are mesmerizingly beautiful. #bloomscrolling #garden #gardening #garten #jardin #FleurisTonFil
#nativeplants #gardening #garden #bloomscrolling #birds Common evening primrose, Oenothera biennis Favorite food for birds and 🐝. Birds perch on the stems to pry open the seed pods. Blooms summer to first frost. It is also edible for humans: leaves, flowers, seeds and roots (in early spring).

Thinking about raking up some leaves this weekend? Read this first.
Why fall yard care could start with doing less – but not nothing
Fallen leaves provide essential winter habitat for native pollinators and provide natural mulch for the soil. If you have to clear some leaves, don’t get rid of them entirely: Move them out of sight.

Bees still need food in the fall. Wild asters bloom prolifically and support pollinators when most flowering plants are going to seed. Symphyotrichum racemosum, small white aster; Bombus impatiens, eastern bumblee #NativePlants #gardening #jardin #garten #garden #bloomscrolling
#gardening So it’s this week plants are showing stress from the Nor’easter 8-10 days ago. A lot of pepper and leaf drop. In other news, I ordered 16 new varieties of pepper for next year. Someone needs to save me from myself. 😭🤣

Climate change #gardening Leaf harvest 🧵: sweet potato leaves, papalo and muscadines. This is the last harvest for muscadines before they start to turn yellow. This is the first round for SP and the papalo got pulled bc the plants broke off from the base in the Nor’easter.

Congress wants to tie the United States to Israel with new piece of legislation. It’s a trap | Eli Clifton and Ian Lustick
