Fave type of tree?
well if ure expecting an answer like "oh i like oak trees" then id say my fave species to encounter on a day by day basis would be Robinia pseudoacacia!! the leaves are SO SO soft!!!!! and i do love me a nice Bean Flower :3c
but if i take ur question literally then id say any tree that can perform C4 photosynthesis :333 theres literally only like 3 or so species in the WHOLE WORLD that can do that!!! like C4 photosynthesis is just THAT rare in trees!!! iirc theyre all in Hawaii
and theyre all Euphorbias of course heheh 😌😌 which is how i know of them
#euphorbias my beloved#also. i always say that im charmed by Lamiaceae (mint etc) flowers (and flowers in the Lamiales order in general)#but i DO definitely enjoy a nice Bean Flower now and then (Fabaceae)#mine#plants

husband, one night stand, best friend but with 3 plants nearest to you! (i hope my assumption that you Own Plants isnt wrong otherwise this ask wont work but LMAO)
This got to be one of my fav asks I ever got haha… Thank you, Tristan! <333 Also, yes, your assumption is correct.
Husband - Dracaena trifasciata (formerly known as Sansevieria, commonly Snake Plant)
I currently own 4 of them (it may or may not be considered polygamy here), half of which are on my nightstand. I could say I sleep/share my bedroom with them every night. I had another one that passed away this spring (*cries widow tears*)
One Night Stand - Coffea arabica
What can I say, m a slut for Arabic coffee plants. What I own is an apartment size one.
Euphorbia trigona rubra is sexy too but that would be the Last Night Stand for me as its “milk” is very toxic... the triunghiular stem and spikes are hot though
Best friend - Sarracenia spp. (aka the Pitcher plant)
Carnivorous plant my beloved. They’re like my pets. I go to buy distilled water especially for them, feed them flies… Sometimes I can hear flies struggling desperately in their death traps, being eaten alive and like to talk to my Sarracenias like to dogs “Who’s a good girl?Who’s a good pitcher-plant? you are, yes, you are…you get rid of the flies for mommy!yeah… good pitcher-plant-pitchy...”
#I expected like 3 anime chara tops ... didn't cross my mind I'll get plants but its awesome#bless u Tristan#ivy answers#ask meme#except for the coffee plant which is my actual babe named Askin.... the other pics are from wikipedia free to use etc etc#search euphorbia trigona rubra for sexy plant pics....nsfw#not safe to work with ...so nsftww actually

A Slow And Thoughtful Garden, Designed With Functionality In Mind
A Slow And Thoughtful Garden, Designed With Functionality In Mind
Gardens
by Sasha Gattermayr
The brief for this suburban garden in Hunters Hill was for the front and rear garden. The owners had been tending to it lovingly since 2004, but required help in structuring the layout! Photo – Brigid Arnott.
The sumptuous front garden! ‘Ruby Lace’ gleditsia (red foliage tree). Fine leaf tree is a coastal tea tree. The large leaves belong to a banksia robur (‘Old Man Banksia’) – a favourite of Hugh’s. Pink flower is justica carnea (Brazilian Plume). Left of frame: euphorbia wulfenii and kerria japonica (Bronze Fennel). Photo – Brigid Arnott.
Sandstone steppers connect the driveway to front path framed by planting of correa alba, cotyledon orbiculate and rounds of rhapiolepsis (Oriental Pink). Coastal tea tree and banksia robur in background. Photo – Brigid Arnott.
Sandstone blade walls made by Ballast Landscape. ‘Ruby Lace’ gleditsia (red foliage tree). In the foreground is euphorbia wulfenii, silver foliage of a kalanchoe beharensis and natural rounds of rhapiolepsis ‘Oriental Pink’ and correa alba. Photo – Brigid Arnott.
The rear garden Photo – Brigid Arnott.
Natural hardwood ‘matchstick’ pool fence on steel frame crafted by Ballast Landscape. Lily pilly screen hedge to rear of pool. Palms and trees in rear neighbour’s garden. Photo – Brigid Arnott.
Borrowed view of trees and large shrubs in neighbouring property. Silver foliage on left (Plectranthus argentatus) Beside a Magnolia stellate and Kerria japonica (pleniflora). Right of frame: a night-flowering cactus in a pot and native violets. Photo – Brigid Arnott.
Left of frame: Cardamom ginger (alpinia nutans) with sweet violet groundcover below. Hand shaped sandstone flagstones. Right: Variegated plectranthus + festuca below cercis (Forest Pansy). Photo – Brigid Arnott.

You could be the most enthusiastic gardener in the world and still need help when it comes to devising the perfect layout for a backyard. The owners of this house and garden in Hunters Hill, who have avid green thumbs themselves, decided it was time for an overhaul of their beloved family garden after more than a decade and a half, so they called in the professionals: landscape architect Hugh Burnett and builders Ballast Landscape.
‘My involvement as designer was to address the challenging parts of an otherwise successful garden,’ says Hugh. ‘Credit for the planting and ‘bones’ of the garden is with the home owner and her mother, who have planted and nurtured the garden prior to my involvement.’
With the personality of the garden already established, Hugh set about creating a framework to support it. He devised a clean layout for the backyard, that would connect the various utility zones (barbeque area, cricket lawn, pool) with the areas reserved for ornamental botanicals.
‘We added an informal path of hand-shaped, open sandstone flagging that extended the gardens and allowed it to “bleed” into the lawn, avoiding a harsh and contrived edge that would awkwardly divide the garden,’ Hugh explains, noting the exquisite craftsmanship by Ballast Landscape in hand-making the sandstone pavers.
The existing planting style of the front garden was soft and organic, neatly in tune with the climate and locale. Working closely with the homeowners, Hugh made a point of retaining this character, adding native shrubs and grasses, robust perennials, succulents, and native ground covers to the mix. This created a dry garden which would survive the heat from the west-facing vantage without irrigation.
The rear garden, however, could afford to be a little juicier. An established crepe myrtle tree set the tone for the planting palette, to which Hugh added a variety of perennials like arums and hellebores to create a generous, bountiful scene. Boston ivy completes this symphony of textures as it coats the fence-line and softens the timber boundary.
Despite the many functions the garden had to facilitate (not to mention the existing plants which had been tended to for decades!) the resulting space is a harmonious haven. Hugh says it best himself, ‘The garden is a true reflection of the warm and inviting nature of the homeowners and their family.’

@tinydooms tagged me for a Get To Know Me meme :o) Thanks!
Relationship status: pretty much married (for 18 years and a half)
Favourite colour: purple
Three favourite foods: chocolate, cheese, watermelon
Song stuck in my head: Tokiko Katô’s “Lai La Lai La” (ライラ・ライラ). The title doesn’t do the song justice. It’s slow, wistful, soothing and sad, and it really bugs me that I couldn’t find anywhere on the entire internet where you can listen to it. Bummer.
Last thing I listened to:
Last thing I googled: “euphorbes dunes” because the Best Beloved was looking at pictures of euphorbia on his phone and saying they were beautiful; I had no idea what they looked like so I looked them up. And yep, they’re really pretty plants!
Time: 13h42 (or 1:42 PM)
Dream trip: A tour of North America to see all the people I’ve loved and been corresponding with online for... over 13 years now. One day!
Anything I want: To finish Valse à Trois Temps!! I’m like... three chapters from the end? I just started on chapter 12, so that’s 12, 13 and 14 to write.
Tagging @radarsteddybear, @myrling-art, @rose-of-pollux, @marcvsjvnivsbrvtvs, @kabbal, @nael-opale, @poppiesandappletrees and @superiorkenshi :o)

Solar Fountains.
White colored and black tulip blends develop a lush comparison especially if they are actually bordered with green, eco-friendly as well as more eco-friendly ... White Blossom Ranch combined the 'Queen of Evening' tulip, as near dark as a blossom can get, along with the white colored fragile Lily-flowered Tulip, 'White Triumphator' - that is the image at the top of this particular post. While there is actually no White Residence regulation that must keep the garden active, Burpee's most recent $2.5 thousand contribution are going to ensure that it is actually oftened and also thrives into the future, as Michelle has intended as a legacy to her partner's attend Office. Garten mosted likely to the White House last month to movie a one-hour special, and both icons discussed a veggie sharp-- featuring veggies off the prima donna's famed landscape-- as well as covered the Obama household leaving the White Property. Nevertheless, like whisteria it can being quite intrusive in your yard therefore take care where and also how you grow this. That is a terrific climber or even a leaf mold, but once it gets going across the ground this will definitely spread fast. behealthwithmila.info The Backyard also held multi night functionality by Justin Timberlake and Paul Simon and Vocalize alongside the Westminster Kennel Club Pet Series, while at the theater at Madison Square Yard feature this previous one-fourth consisted of Robin Thicke, Ellie Goulding for two offered out programs as well as family beloved Sesame Street Stay for a multi program run. Euphorbia griffithii 'Dixter,' named for Great Dixter, a arts and also professions design yard in East Sussex created popular by British landscaper Christopher Hamilton Lloyd ( March 2, 1921 - January 27, 2006), acquired the Royal Horticultural Society's Award of Yard Quality (AGM) in 1993. That is actually OKAY. Even grownups releasing a veggie backyard may learn a thing or three coming from "My Yard Yard," that includes lot designs for two gardens, a month-by-month guide to duties and tons of information together with brief genetics factoids as well as horticulture approaches, like a recipe for homemade garlic-onion bug spray. The students and the community may grass and hoe, a vegetable garden that likewise has two apples, and pair of pear trees on each from the sections of it. This yard additionally showcases a garlic patch and an asparagus spot to the right of this.
The greatest green spinach I had ever tasted originated from a compost backyard, so I know that the lasagne yard atop the ground is actually only what I have to make the greatest veggies possible as well as conserve a mound of work that I can no more exert.

This is an amazing plant with an amazing story behind it which I cannot stop myself thinking about every time I look at it. When I moved into our lovely house in NAIROBI a few years ago our garden was a jungle in which a 3 meters euphorbia towered among the yellow fever acacias. I asked the gardener to clean up a few branches of the acacia trees that were suffocating this stunning monumental plant and I realised too late that he misunderstood me and he was cutting off the euphorbia instead. I felt so hearth broken for the poor victims of this unfortunate mixup that I couldn't get myself to dispose of them and without even knowing if it was possible to simply stick pieces of euphorbia in the ground expecting them to grow I asked him to just plant several of them around the garden. Here is what they grew into, and isn't that incredible? To add to the miracle they flower once a year, just one huge flower a year but what the sight! I must go and dig in my archives and try to find some photos of them! So, tonight I remembered my beloved euphorbia, symbol of the regenerating power of nature, of endurance and survival... symbol of a never fading hope for more life to come. #nabateaconceptstore
