Ornithostaphylos oppositifolia is a monotypic genus from the chaparral of San Diego Co. and adjacent Mexico. As the epithet says, it has opposite leaves, and the fruits are dryish drupes. What a beauty! 😍 📷: John Rusk CCBY2 #Ericaceae #Botany 🌾🧪🌱

I got stipules for you all week! Stipules are small (usually), paired (usually) bits of leaf tissue at the junction of the petiole & stem. They are part of the leaf, but not all plants have them. A pair of big, obvious stipules of Lysoloma auritum (#Fabaceae) are circled. #stipule #Botany 🌾🧪🌱

I open my Bluesky feed and it is full of really cool people saying really smart things and being really passionate about really interesting stuff.

I like this version of social media, and the world.

Thanks, folks.

Just my 2 cents. But my goal is to ignore the trolls. Give them zero attention. Block them if they annoy me.

I think the worst thing we can do on this site is re-create the ad hominem/ personal attacks that occur across comments on Twitter/insta/tiktok/ etc

Drosera Graomogolensis is a South American Sundew that is absolutely striking! This carnivorous plant will trap prey using the sticky dew on its leaves. 🌱
