Plant of the Day

Friday 8 November 2024

Probably the last flower of the season for this climber Passiflora caerulea (blue passion flower, blue crown, common passion flower, flower of five wounds). It was on a garland of stems appearing over a garden wall to surprise me on the street.

What is "Dragons hurt dragons" about?

I think I’ve been asked this before, but I’ll answer it again, no problem. This time I’ll give more details. “Dragons hurt dragons” is a story taking place in the same Universe as “A Sand Particle Show”.

PREPARE YOURSELF FOR A MASSIVE INFO DUMP

It is about one of the first civilizations of mortals, created by the god of life SamoDobro and led by the god of death GaderyPoluki. The gods are young and haven't figured out how to properly care for their creations. SamoDobro found that experimenting is the most effective (and fun) way to gain knowledge. He came up with the idea of ​​placing mortals on several small planets with different environments and resources.

The main characters of this story belong to the species called kettle dragons, named after the shape of their planet. (It is actually teapot-shaped but shhh). The Kettle is the biggest and the wealthiest planet of all. Its climate is warm, food is easily accessible and the ground is filled with gold. The kettle dragons grew so full of themselves, they believe to be superior not only to other species, but also to their compatriots. Everyone claimed to be a king or a queen and demanded obedience, but in the planet full of arrogant rulers there is no one to give orders to. They split the land into MANY tiny kingdoms.

The three of main characters: Irys, Passiflora and Tulipan; live in one castle, which is divided into 3 parts that they call their own "kingdoms". They hate each other, especially Irys and Tulipan. For fear of passing on their share to their castle-mates (castle-mate?, is that a word?) after death, each adopted an heir, whose names are Jaśmin, Hiacynt and Jaskier. (also main characters)

Irys -> Hiacynt; Passiflora -> Jaśmin; Tulipan -> Jaskier

There is no solid plot in this story, it is mostly about shenanigans of the main characters and how they deal with living in a such nonsensical society.

They follow a some sort of routine; Jaśmin sneaks out of the castle every night and gives her guardian Passiflora a headache; Irys constantly tries to kill Tulipan and forces Hiacynt to help him with that; Jaskier wants to be a soldier and (without the others' consent) transformed the living room into a training ground.

The kettle dragons' routine was interrupted by a mysterious figure. Its appearance alone arouses confusion because it doesn't fit the description of any existing species.

One day, the outsider climbed the tallest tree in the middle of the cemetery, which is a sacred place for all kettle dragons, and began to speak. He claimed to be the Prophet and the future son of the third god who would soon be born. No one believed him, he was quickly thrown out of the cemetery.

But he never left. Many dragons claim that the Prophet follows them or whispers in their ears while they sleep. Soon, kings and queens begin to disappear without a trace.

The gods don't do anything about it, as they said: "It's finally getting interesting" 👍

Other characters here are: Ocel the furnace dragon, Len the true dragon king, Maciejek, also SemiSue and LostMedia.

Passiflore…

[dailybotany]

found this weird flower on a fence at my local community garden and i was wondering if it could be id’ed? unfortunately i couldn’t get any other pictures than this one. im in south florida but ive never seen anything like this before so i have to assume its nonnative. flower was about the size of my palm if that helps. thanks!

@salty-but-bland It looks like blue passionflower (Passiflora caerulea) to me! They are native to South America, but have been introduced widely through cultivation. There are some Passiflora species that are native to your area, though! If you're curious, I'd check out BONAP (here) for range maps (it has its issues with accuracy, as any large aggregation of data can and is a little out of date, but still relatively reliable!)

White Passionflower

(passiflora subpeltata)

Not to be confused with passionfruit (passiflora edulis), maracuya (passiflora edulis x passiflora colvilii), maypop (passiflora incarnata), grenadilla (passiflora ligularis) or curuba (passiflora tarminiana)

Can't believe we made it to 500 fruits, and there's still so much more.

🍈🍏🍒Reblog to share a fun fruit and to increase sample size!🍒🍏🍈

Passiflora mollissima seedlings!! (42 days from sowing) I’m surprised I was able to get four to germinate! Passionfruit are notoriously difficult to germinate and at most I’ve been able to get one per batch to germinate.

It was suggested that I soak them for a day or two with changes of water to try and leech off the germination inhibitors. I also used distilled water to create more of a pull on those chemicals with the difference in water potential. I have no clue if any of this made a difference and I’d have to run formal experiments but I did it!!

Passiflora get pretty big so I will probably have to sell them and not be able to enjoy their fruit and flowers but I thought they’d be fun to raise until then.

Ah, hi guys, it was about high time I posted something new after a week. I'm designing a new character, say hi to Passiflora Belladonna! Because Malcom is too much of a freak of nature to be left to his own devices.

She works at the archive with him, I yet have to decide in what role. And those languid eyes and lingering stare tell me she has an inexplicable fondness for him - or rather explicable actually, if you would please bother to read their design notes. Hoping they're legible at all that is.

I chose the name 'Passiflora', because the flower is commonly used to treat anxiety and narcolepsy - traits I associate with this character, opposing to Malcom's own insomnia and impatience.

I also slightly redesigned Malcom, because up until now his design wan't very clear in my mind when I had to draw him, and I just didn't vibe with it. He possess both ears once again, tho his hearing is still damaged. He's also much shorter than before. I was thinking of Anger from Inside Out when I drew that, for the record. It just fits.

Let me know if you like them! ❤️
