Some hermits as my favourite weeds
no not like that
JoeHills:
Dandelion, thrives everywhere, resilient, very pretty but considered bad because they grow places people don’t want them to, I was told off for making wishes and blowing the seeds when i was little, but they still brought me a lot of joy. They grow in the cracks of pavement and decorate the world, bringing nature back into urbanized areas and reminding us we are part of the Eco-system on earth.
Cleo:
Daisy. Theres this poem/comment i love which is: ‘i like dandelions, the daisies would be lonely without them’ and it reminds me of Joe and Cleo’s friendship. extremely pretty but very hardy, they look delicate and fragile but are stubborn as hell. You can make daisy chains and tell stories using the petals
Impulse:
Buttercups, bright yellow and wonderful. If you hold one under your chin and it reflects it means you like butter (scientific fact /j). They always make me smile when i see them. They look pretty harmless but, despite the name, they’re poisonous and should not be eaten, people often take them at face value and don’t realise they have this property. They’re easily underestimated.
Jevin:
Nettles, seem very sharp and unforgiving but they’re actually very useful and very helpful. The tea you can make out of them is believed to have anti-inflammatory properties and they make a really good soup. Easy to grow and look after, thrive next to canals and other water sources. Surprisingly pretty flowers, no woodland walk would be complete without them.
Zedaph
Clover, springy and bright green. They’re known for their leaves but their flowers are also wonderful! They’re said to bring luck if you see them with 4 leaves but honestly i love them in all their configurations. Lots of different animals Love them, sheep, cows, i’ve seen some lizards eat them! They’re often overlooked in lawns because they’re the same colour as the grass but a meadow would be boring without them.
Etho
Bittercress. an annual plant that flowers breifly but are very hard to get rid of. They’re prefered method of spreading is via exploding, sending their seeds up to 2m away! Frost hardy and difficult to remove despite lying dormant most of the year. Unconventional but very cool. i love em
Tango
ivy, one of my favourite plants fullstop. Grows in so many places, its a trailing plant that’s highly adpatable suits many different environments. Also vital to the eco-system even tho people don’t realise! it lessens the affect of frost, provides shelter for bugs and allows animals to forage during bitter spells. On trees it houses birds and can be used as a place for a nest. It’s also very good for pollinators when it flowers. It’s the basis for a large part of the wildlife in forests!
Scar
Moss. i love this lil thing so much its a problem. I have a moss garder in my room right now. It makes things so goddam beautiful just by growing there. It grows where it seems like it should be impossible to do so, on walls, on fallen trees on bare rock face. There are so many different types that can spruce up so many different places it wonderful. Excellent at hiding cracks in tiles and other mistakes you may have made. Also the song cosmo sheldrake reminds me of scar sooo
