@swirledstarz You wamt peccking AHiT Fic Reccomemdations?
@shadowthrone-ammanas‘s fic requests
There’s a lot of them, and they’re good.
there’s a little girl in the forest and lovely little glass roses [shrodingers_cat]
https://archiveofourown.org/works/23127991 and https://archiveofourown.org/works/23182336
“But now there’s a little girl in the forest, and she’s going to live. No one asks her name, and she doesn’t give it out. She seems to prefer the anonymity anyway, and it’s not like she asked any of their names either. (As if they had them. As if anything in this forest, living or dead, could have a name. Only she had the audacity.)“
“Her fingertips trail glittering snowflakes across her curtains. Delighted, she taps the windowpane, and watches the fragments trace lovely little patterns as they spread. She doesn’t see how the crystalline ice frosts over the rosebushes outside her window. She doesn’t see them wither, and fall, perfectly preserved in shimmering glass.”
Have I ever mentioned how much I love when almost poetic fics like these turn out right? Pecking fantastic.

Mixed borders
Tumblr media
Mixed borders-advice for maintaining or planning your border
Mixed borders have gained popularity in the coming years, moving away from the more traditional herbaceous borders which were grown tightly together in large rectangular beds based on their colour and height with tiny flowers at the front, medium in the centre and taller 6 ft plants at the back.
Mixed borders are easier to keep and are usually mixed together with annuals, perennials, biennials, shrubs and low growing trees of similar heights but the density of the plants are chosen more carefully, more airy plants like delicate ornamental grasses and flowers on long stalks can look striking mixed with more dense plants in the flower bed and also with deciduous trees, flowering shrubs, rosebushes,lilies and hedges.
Airy plants include: Cimicifuga (feathery spikes of white flowers), Delphinium (long flower spikes of various colours), Eremurus( foxtail lily ), Echinops (globe thistle), Kniphofia (colourful flower spikes), Lobelia, Allium, Armeria, Aquilegia. Camassia, Fritillaria, bottle bush types such as pennisetum& pennisetum(fountain grass).
Dense shrubs include : Button bush, Butterfly bush, Rose of sharon, Azalea, lilac, Quince, Dentzia, Forsythia, Weigela, Cinquefoil, Shrub rose, Potentilla, Rhododendron, Viburnum, Lavender, Sage, Mallow, Phlox, Geraniums, Campanula, Hemerocallis(day lily) and tall upright pelargoniums such  as P. Vitifolium & P. Denticulatum. They can also be mixed with simplistic and architectural shaped foliage to make your border more interesting, brightly coloured or Zoned leaves can also look effective.
When planning or improving your border think about the colours, height, density, growth size and season of flowering thought the year. The style of the border is also important so that that it blends well with the rest of the garden, such as a wild natural border, a border with similar colours such as gold-yellows, purple- blue, dark-pale pinks. A natural woodland garden with ferns, hollyhocks and bluebells, rock border with succulent type species or a border mixed with roses. They can also be based on a certain theme as as modern, contemporary, traditional, romantic, sculptural,or based on a theme such as a rustic, Japanese, Zen, European, Mediterranean or  Asian gardens. The edging of the border can vary, the traditional brick & stone edging is the most popular because it last longer than other edging types and is usually cemented to keep them in place, although some types do tend to be more expensive and can also be part of a patio design, They can also be positioned in different ways, they can be laid diagonally, as stone edging such a flagstone and cobble stone, a natural stone wall, or you may prefer a border with hedges, wooden edging, logs or sleepers. Wooden edging can look effective in the garden but doesn't usually last so long as it tends to rot, but this can depend on what style you wish to achieve. Or for a more simple approach you can use cinder blocks as edging  which can be cemented and painted or small metal border fence edging ,wattle fencing if you like an more rustic look. Mixing in an organic matter such as from a compost bin into the soil of the border can help improve its quality , this can be done once a year in Spring or Autumn which can also help with drainage in the soil. You may also think about lifting plants out gently, removing any dead leaves & stems and dividing plants to stop them growing too close together every four to five years.
Ideal plants for border perennials
Perennials are typically Spring and Summer flowering plants which die back in Autumn and Winter & then re growth occurs again in Spring, although this is not always the case. Some types still thrive throughout the Winter and can live for many years but this can also depend on temperature and location. Perennial types include evergreen, deciduous, monocarpic, woody or herbaceous.
Evergreens are great for adding colour to the garden during the winter months such as the blue flowered Brunnera, Helleborus in various colours, Nepeta with blue grey aromatic foliage and the Stachys pink flowers on long stems. Deciduous-When you read the word deciduous you immediately think of trees dropping their leaves in Autumn but in fact there are a few plants & shrubs which also shed their petals & fruit. Deciduous perennials include the bright yellow flowered Goldrod, the highly fragrant honeysuckle, white flowered viburnum, Grapes, wisteria & poison ivy.
Monocarpic are perennials which are short lived, they grow only to flower, produce seed and then die, these include the  Acanthacease group of flowering plants, Apocynaceae, Asteraceae, Agavaceae, Araceae and Fabaceae.
Woody perennials have woody stems and roots that continue to grow after each season, these can be trees, shrubs or wood climbing plants know as lianas. Woody perennials include rosemary, mulberry, blackberry, honeysuckle, and apple.
Herbaceous perennials have fresh green stems which are not woody and is usually a herb that is used in food or for medicinal properties, these include grasses, ferns, vines, trees, shrubs and some bamboo types. Such as Peonies, Salvia, Poppies, Aquilegia(columbine), bananas, cone flower (echinacea), daffodils are examples of Herbaceous perennials. Other perennials ideal for borders include: Acanthus Achillea-yarrow, Agapanthus-African lily, Anemone, Catananche-cupids dart, Cimicifuga-long flowering spikes,Eremurus-foxtail lily, Centaurea-cornflower, Chrysanthemum-daisy, Delphinium, Echinops-globe thistle, Evigeron, Lupin,Linum,Physostegia,

Pet rabbit bit me (shin)
Went sledding on a makeshift snow hill in the backyard straight into a rosebush (cupid's bow/lip)
Spider bite cause an infection on my finger
Coffeepot exploded hot coffee onto my foot
Iron fell onto my left forearm
Curling iron fell onto my right forearm
All the times my feet bled during ballet pointe class (my feet still look jacked up)
Reblog if you have a scar with a story behind it.
This one time I tripped

ROSE MYTHOLOGY
Tumblr media
Venus presented the rose to her son Cupid, who in his turn gave it to Harpocrates, the god of silence, to induce him to conceal the weaknesses of the gods. Thus the rose became the emblem of silence without ceasing to be the flower of wine, love and beauty.
According to Zoroaster, the rose was free from thorns, until the entrance into the world of Ahrimannes (the spirit of evil).
On the tomb of Ah, son of Abutalib, the mighty hero and companion of the Prophet, grow roses of the sweetest smell and the finest colour, which it is superstitiously believed will grow nowhere else, all attempts to transplant them having failed. -Carruther
Horace enjoins their unsparing use at banquets, when they were used not only as a means of decoration, but also to strew the floors, and even in winter the luxurious Romans expected to have petals of roses floating in their Falernian wine. Roman brides and bridegrooms were crowned with roses, so too were the images of Cupid and Venus and Bacchus. Roses were scattered at feasts of Flora and Hymen, in the paths of victors, or beneath their chariot-wheels, or adorned the prows of their war-vessels. -Grieve
The ancients crowned themselves with roses at their feasts to shew that the outpourings of the heart at festal meetings should never be divulged; they also sculptured it over the doors of their banqueting rooms, whence came the phrase," under the rose," signifying a conversation held confidentially. -Carruther

To Heal A Wart
#6631: "I am getting away from the wart. I had several warts between my thumb and first finger. I didn't believe this -- if you have a wart, take a dish rag, rub over your wart, then bury the rag under a red rosebush -- but I took my dish rag, rubbed over my warts good, then put my dish rag under the red rosebush we had in the yard. Well, one day my warts were all gone, even if I don't believe in signs."

EVOLUTION
Tumblr media
EVOLUTION
The Rocks are splitting slowly,
A new Earth being born.
The Planets spinning eternally,
Give rise to a brand new Dawn.
The Seeds of Love are planted,
By Cupid every day.
Whilst Envy spreads her Ivy,
To steal old Hearts away.
The Petals on a Rosebush,
Wither, wilt and fade.
Not knowing that the Daffodils,
Restore colour to the Glade.
Time and Tide waits for no man,
Life is destined to…

suga-ia​:
It’s a small world { Kat, Nam, Suga }
“Mom, we’re here.” Suga calls out as he and Namjoon arrive at the dormitory where the witch lives. They pass a small cupid in the hallway and Suga recognizes him vaguely as Katarina’s roommate, smiling at the other who just stares at him and Namjoon oddly and then smiles at them, freaking Suga out.
He had texted his mom that he and Namjoon had something to tell his mother, nothing bad he had assured her in the text but they wanted to tell her together. “Mom!” Suga grins as they come in and he first begins with giving her a big bag with presents. Canadian Maple Syrup, a large sweater with a moose on it and beef jerky. Suga grins as he towers over his mother, sort of- he is tall. Taller than usual and still miniature in comparison to Namjoon but-
He sees her expression and he becomes pale as he, on the spot, shrinks a full ten centimeters to match his mom better. Looking like a deer caught in the headlights as he clears his throat and tries to continue as if nothing has happened.
“So Namu and I went to Canada, isn’t it great. Tell her Namu.”
@katarina-ia @namjoon-ia Suga
‘Vani if you’re going to take a nap at least do it on the couch so I can vacuum the floor!’ She complained at her familiar adding the elvish word for lazy as he groaned and slinked off to lay on her bed instead. She was cleaning the room in preparation for a visit from Suga her only precious child and Namjoon who she had also claimed as her precious child. With Vanimelda gone from the room she was able to finish cleaning and as she was putting the vacuum away they arrived. 
Coming into the living room the first thing she did was wrap her arms around Suga holding him tightly to her but something was off...why was her head at his shoulder and not resting against it? Leaning back for a moment she peered at him, green eyes searching in confusion before she realized what was going on and he realized that she knew what was going on. 
‘SUGA MELIAN THERIOR!‘  Oh he was in for it now! Green eyes had widened as she stared at him and her fingers began to move rapidly in signs different than what she used normally. It was elvish these signs, ones she only used in her most aghast moments. 
‘PLEASE MY DEAREST CHILD TELL ME THAT YOU DON’T SHRINK DOWN LIKE THIS TO APPEASE ME. I ALWAYS ASSUMED YOU WERE JUST SMALL IN NATURE LIKE I, BUT, BUT, BUT!!!’ All these years, he had willingly been no taller than a rosebush? 
Glancing from her now eye level child to Namjoon who always towered over her and back to Suga she began chuckling softly before it turned to laughter and she perched on the back of the couch to catch her breath, fingers sighing again but slower and back to a language they could all understand. 
‘Oh god it makes more sense, I did so worry that Namjoon would hurt his back trying to kiss you because of the height difference but you...WHY DID YOU NEVER TELL ME!’ And again she was laughing as she moved from the couch to pull Namjoon into a hug this time happy to find that SOMEONE’S height was the same as usual.
