Amsonia ‘Storm Cloud’

Amsonia (Blue Star), has been around for a long time. Perhaps it’s Amsonia hubrichtii, native to Oklahoma and Arkansas, which is best known for its brilliant fall color and needle-like leaves. Amsonia tabernaemontana covers the most ground with its natural habitat — as far south as Florida all the way up to New York.

Top 10 Seasonal Stars of the Fall Garden

Spring perennial bloomers are easy. There are so many great spring performers that you always have something blooming all spring long with little effort. Fall can be a little trickier to have a constant parade of colorful bloomers, and I always am looking for new candidates and old favorites. Mums and asters are the usual suspects when people think of fall flowers, but there are so many more.…

the amsonia flower represents determination, persistence and a strong will- tenets at the heart of a survivor. the blue flower variant, often known as blue star, also represents hope, love, and reaching for the impossible.

" You could always quit,"

Red doesn't speak much. And when he does, it's often to a select few, at a few times. To the outside world, it adds to his mystery, this vision of the cool and quiet legend. To those who actually know him, it's just Red. Still, Red is fortunate - Blue almost has an uncanny way of knowing what he's thinking ( until he doesn't), and Leaf always seems to be on the same wavelength as him, despite how....insane, she can get. Though that's just another trait they share, he suppose. Yes, Red is fortunate to have people who can understand him so easily. So even if he wants to speak, he doesn't. Words are unnecessary......with Blue and Leaf.

Red tends to forget that Amsonia can't read his mind. The look of confusion on her face is evident of that.

" Champion," he clarifies. That only seems to confuse Amsonia further, her eyebrows furrowing.

The downside of words being unnecessary is that he ends up not being good with words.

' It's a lot,' he signs, ' A lot of pressure. Feeling like you have to commit when you don't want to'

As Amsonia's gaze softens, registering his words, Red relaxes a little. He continues,' I don't want to see you get crushed by that weight'.

' Just know you could always quit. Don't let anyone tell you otherwise,'

Amsonia stares at him for a bit, then looks away, her face scrunching up in a way that Red has learned means she's thinking particularly hard on something. It reminds him of Kenji, in a way. He sees her eyes flicker from one emotions to another - confusion, frustration, clarity and....humor? Her eyes are back at him, and she's smirking.

' Are you projecting?'

That was not the reaction Red was expecting. A solemn nod, or Amsonia's typical defiance in her face. Not a lighthearted joke at his expense. He opens his mouth to deny her, only to close it when realizing she's right. Suddenly embarrassed, he tips his hat down. Being read like a book by his friends is common practice at this point. Being read like a book by a 12 year old feels like a punch to the gut.

He can hear Amsonia giggle, and feels a gentle tap on his hat. Raising his hat from his eyes, he sees Amsonia smiling at him.

" Thanks," she says quietly, then signing ' I'll keep that in mind,'. Red relaxes once more, sighing to himself before ruffling Amsonia's hair, earning him a hand swat.

' Good,' he pauses, ' You didn't need to call me out like that, though'

Amsonia only shrugs cheekily.

Last time the cicadas exploded, I remember them clinging to this patch of willow amsonia as it was blooming… I’m guessing that they’re right around the corner as it’s just starting to pop

LINK FEST: 20 FEBRUARY 2024

Links that may or may not be related to gardens, food, travel, nature, or heterotopias and liminal spaces but probably are. Sources in parentheses. article: Amsonia for the Mid-Atlantic Region (Mt. Cuba Center). Report of their species trials, including pollinator visitations. newsletter rec: The Whippet (McKinley Valentine). This week’s is an example of why it’s, as someone in the comments…

Here's my (probably only, sadly) post for Solarpunk Aesthetic Week! Originally made for Andrewism's 2023 Solarpunk Art Collab!

This digital painting depicts the Southern Great Lakes Ecoregion, within the Interior Plateau & Southern Great Lakes Forests Bioregion, within the Temperate Broadleaf and Mixed Forest Biome.

I chose a suburban setting for this piece because I've not yet seen a Solarpunk artwork that features this. I'm aware of the problems with the suburbs, but it seems to me more sustainable to try to adapt them than to demolish them and start over. So instead of lawns I've depicted beds of native Indiana plants, including but not limited to:

Amsonia Tabernaemontana (Eastern Bluestar)

Spartina Pectinata (Prairie Cordgrass)

Echinacea Purpurea (Purple  Coneflower.

The roofs of the houses are either white to help reflect heat, or green roofs. Some of the houses are equipped with solar panels on the south sides, and one is shown with a greenhouse on that side as well.

While perhaps not explicitly ecologically focused, I have shown there to be more art in this setting than is usually found in american suburbia. The sidewalk has a mural painted with hydrochromic paint, which only appears while it is raining. The houses are painted bright colors (white or greige is  considered  'Normal' ) and are occasionally decorated with murals.

This particular area is among the cloudiest in the so-called U.S.A. To reflect that, the weather is overcast and it is currently raining.

Hope y'all enjoy this, and Happy Solarpunk Aesthetic Week!
