    Is this in a botanical garden? What a shame. I'm saddened to see botanical gardens are now just venues to take wedding photos. Why not just idk.... Grow a tree... For the botanical garden... Of it isn't then fine

    The corpse flower has to be the funniest flower in the plant kingdom for me, it's like it read the rules of everything a flower is supposed to be and is consciously and aggressively giving said rules the middle finger. "You want dainty and fragrant? Size of a toddler and smells like rotting meat. Take it or leave it."

    I ❤ wax seals. I found then at a Hallmark store when I was a little girl in the 80’s (yes I was there to witness the crazy 80’s) I have loved them ever since. I can’t wait to visit The Huntington.

    That claim makes zero sense. He fired a shotgun with bird shot into his own hand, at about 20' distant?

    I saw photos (from the late 1800s, I believe) of a Midwestern botanical garden that had the biggest lily pads I've ever seen. The Victorian era folks in the photos were actually standing on them! I've been interested in lily-filled garden water features ever since. Beautiful!

    I once bit into a guava, in Maui, and found a tiny starting ant colony! Luckily, I didn't eat anyone 😅 We were all very lucky. I placed them safely on the side of the road.

    My Granddaddy had a huge one that he tended to for as long as I can remember! Every couple of days when grandma made sweet tea they would empty out their tea bags into the staghorn to help it grow. I still cherish the memories of when I got to go out with him to feed his plants, but he was especially proud of his big healthy staghorn fern!

    Would’ve been nice to say when the actual x-ray was taken… So for anyone wondering, it was taken in February 1896. This x-ray is 128 years old 😊
