La cobée

Floraison de la cobée

présentation

La cobée est une plante grimpante originaire du Mexique. On l'appelle également Cobaea scandes qui est son nom scientifique. Elle fait partie de la famille des Polémoniacées. Sa culture et son entretien sont faciles. Son besoin en eau est important. Elle est très peu rustique car elle supporte au maximum des température de -2°/-6°. Il s'agit d'une plante vivace, mais dans la plupart des régions françaises, elle est cultivée en annuelle à cause de sa nature plutôt gélive. Sa croissance est rapide. Cette plante est merveilleuse de par son originalité et de ses différents tons qui vont du blanc en passant par le bleu et le violet. Sa floraison s'étale du mois de juillet au mois d'octobre.

culture

Choisissez-lui un emplacement ensoleillé dans les régions froides et plutôt à mi-ombres dans les régions chaudes afin d'éviter le soleil trop brûlant. Elle apprécie les sols riches, très bien drainés et frais pendant les grosses chaleurs de la saison estivale. La cobée se sème au chaud (en intérieur) en godets du mois de février au mois d'avril. Afin de faciliter la levée qui peut prendre jusqu'à 3 semaines, je vous conseille de faire tremper vos graines dans de l'eau tiède la veille de votre semis. Si vous habitez dans une région où il risque d'y avoir des gelées tardives, patientez jusqu'au 14 mai (juste après les Saints de glace) pour pouvoir installer vos cobées. Dans ce cas, repiquez les jeunes plants dans des godets plus grands afin qu'ils se développent d'avantage avant la plantation. Espacez chaque sujet d'un mètre minimum en veillant impérativement à ne pas enterrer le collet.

entretien

La cobée n'a besoin d'aucune fertilisation. Gardez son pied au frais sans pourtant l’inonder. En effet, si elle a soif, elle peut stopper son développement. Il faut que vous veillez à ce que le sol reste un peu humide pour son bon développement. La plante s'accroche d'elle même sur le support que vous lui proposez. Toutefois, je vous conseille de lui installer un tuteur lors de sa plantation. Supprimez les fleurs fanées au fur et à mesure afin de provoquer une remontée florale jusqu'aux premières gelées.

parasites & maladies

La cobée ne craint ni parasites, ni maladies.

multiplication

La cobée se multiplie par semis comme déjà expliqué ci-dessus. Elle peut également se multiplier par bouture ligneuse à l'étouffée.

association

La cobée s'associe avec d'autres plantes grimpantes comme par exemple les glycines tubéreuses, les capucines des Canaries ou bien encore les ipomées. Vous pouvez également les faire partir à l'assaut d'arbustes fleuris tel le rosier.

Chapter 22: Cobaea Scandens

Shelves of Aster Chapter 1 (Part 1 of I Never Bloomed ‘till I Met You)

It feels surreal posting this now that it’s almost been a year since I started writing the first fic for this series. Now here we are, at Steve/Bucky’s origin story! It’s gonna be much longer than Rose Blue, so it’s an unfinished WIP :) I hope to update every now and then, but I’ll be hopping between this and my SFS bang fic for a while.

A big shoutout to @appleschloss who is very much as absorbed into Bloom as I am <3

Pairing: Steve/Bucky Word/Chapter Count: 10,344 (2/?) LONGFIC! Tags: Modern/Bookstore AU, Dom/Sub, Dom/Top!Steve, Sub/Bottom!Bucky, First Meetings, Meet Cute, Falling in Love, Fluff & Smut (see full list of tags on AO3)

📚 Summary 📚

Steve had just about everything he could want, and he wasn’t even forty yet. A nice penthouse in Brooklyn, heated floors in all bathrooms, and a closet full of tailor-made suits. It was almost complete, but one thing was missing.

A sub, preferably a twink. Maybe a partner as well? He’d also love to have a sugar baby to spoil.

But Steve was too busy with work to jump back into the dating scene, as bringing Tony’s fantasies to life was time consuming. Had it really been a year since he hooked up with someone? It felt longer, considering he’d been active in the lifestyle for over a decade.

Then came an encounter on a late evening, when he ran to the nearest store in need of paint. It was as if his thoughts were heard and the perfect match for him had fallen into his lap. An adorable twenty-something with beautiful blue eyes and short brown hair. Unfortunately they were about to close, so he hadn’t had the chance to talk to the cashier beyond exchanging a couple of words.

But what were the odds he was interested in kink too?

Chapter 2: Laburnum

Plant of the Day

Wednesday 1 December 2021

In tropical America the climber Cobaea scandens (cup-and-saucer vine, cathedral bells, Mexican ivy, monastery bells) grows as a strong woody perennial but in Britain it is usually grown as a vigorous annual. In this walled garden, which was producing cut flowers, it was used to cover these screens during the summer and has a few last flowers before the frosts begin. The fragrant, bell-shaped flowers change from greenish-white to purple and in its native habitat these are pollinated by bats.

With some flowers, for me, it’s really love at first sight! As I see a flower with unique or particular shapes, I’m instantly struck and I can’t help but imagine how I could portrait it… That’s what happened with the flowers of this pattern: the Cobaea Scandens. I didn’t know this flower and I’ve never seen it before but all it took was a picture to make me fall in love with it! 🌿🌷 *Shop link in bio to find out more about this peter pan collar! #peterpancollar #handmade #handmadepeterpancollar #handmadewithlove #fattoamano #italyhandmade #floralpattern #floralfabric #cobaeascandens #cobaea #cobaeaflowers #etsy #etsyshop #etsyitalia https://www.instagram.com/p/CQgoqpbhqt9/?utm_medium=tumblr

A few of the colours and floral forms of the #iplantsgarden currently. Definitely a change in temperature and general weather clearly heading towards autumn. Despite flowering still doing well, a lot of foliage is declining. . It has been a good, long season.

Cobaea for the wip asks!

Oh Cobaea, I'm so sorry for forgetting about you.

This is another fic set in my post s2 domestic bliss universe called "A Branch For Two"

In this fic, Loki bumps into one of his neighbours, Marion, at the village store. She starts gossiping about someone who wronged her, and Loki, living for it, listens intently, agreeing that this behaviour isn’t acceptable.

She’s charmed by him and invites him for afternoon tea with “the girls”.

Other than some random ways that Loki is going to interfere and cause mischief, this is all that I have in my notes app:

“Did you hear about the mysterious couple that moved in on our street?” Loki said, jumping up to sit on the kitchen island. Mobius swatted him with a hand towel, “I’ve just cleaned; get down from there!” Loki didn’t move, and Mobius sighed, pausing to stand in front of him. “No, of course I didn’t hear, Loki.” He ran his hands up Loki's arms with a teasing smile, “Because, unlike you, I don’t spend my day gossiping.” Loki rolled his eyes. “Yes, anyway, the man is—according to Alice—dazzling! She said that she doesn’t know what he does for a living, but she’ll get back to me.” “She’ll get back to you?” Mobius laughed, “You’re enjoying this, aren’t you?” “Very much so.”
