[flowerishness]

Bistorta amplexicaulis formerly Persicaria amplexicaulis (mountain fleece var: "Firetail") and Bombus impatiens (common eastern bumblebee)

Our old Persicaria "Firetail" is well into it's third month of blooming but it's still getting plenty of attention from the local pollinators. This Persicaria has an unusually long flowering season for a perennial which tend to have a much shorter season than annuals. I understand this species has been adopted by the New Perennial Movement with it's emphasis on gardens with naturalistic settings. If so, then my overgrown and overcrowded, kidney-shaped flower bed is probably a perfect location.

By the way, I know Persicaria amplexicaulis has been recently reclassified as Bistorta amplexicaulis but it will always be Persicaria amplexicaulis to me. Just call me stuck in my ways.

Plant of the Day

Friday 10 November 2023

The annual Persicaria maculosa (kiss-me-over-the-garden-gate, lady's thumb, lady's pinch, redshank) can reach over 1m high when in flower. A plant that can add fun to a late summer border.

A heartwarming moment stolen from this hectic world where a tender pinch on the cheek washes away all the pains and fatigues.

❄️Winter Solstice🕯️

Silence lingers in the room, as two dolls are sat together on the couch. The attempt to celebrate the holidays this year... proving a not unforeseeable strain. P "You didn't have to come visit... I don't- want to be a burden. Besides... Shouldn't you still be resting?" I "...I am resting. Together with you."
