This is a field full of them. They look like blue glitter when you’re out walking.

They’re so cute.
Tiny bluets are one of the first native wild flowers to bloom in spring here. Companion planted these with a hackberry tree seedling.

#ThickTrunkTuesday. Spring definitely getting into its stride. The cherry blossom is out. #plants #trees #bloomscrolling
Spring is springing over here , which got us in the mood for some #bloomscrolling. This custom feed by @bettafishenergy.bsky.social is a whirl of greenery, gardening and off-grid life.

Jobs for the weekend - 22/23 March
My top-soil and bark mulch got delivered so need to shift all of that, which will allow for carrots, snips and salad to be sown. Got some maintenance to do as well, oiling and sharpening tools etc.
Also going to plan out a “habitat stack”. Logs and leaves and whatnot for any wildlife that might want to use it

New #introduction post!
I'm Alicia and I'm a fibre artist (#dyeing #handspinning #felting #needlefelting #weaving #crochet #embroidery #upcycling #sewing) with interests in #mandala #art #psychedelicart #sacredgeometry #neurographicart and #watercolors.
My family and I run a business called @Fibre2Fabric where we dye all sorts of exotic #fibre #yarn, and #fabric.
I live in the country with my partner and our 6 #cats, 3 #dogs, #snake and #crestedgecko where I enjoy my many interests. (#gardening #plants #herbalism #fungi #music #ukulele #piano #dancing #flowart #reading #writing #tarot #poetry #haiku #cozygames and I'm getting more into #opensource / #linux)
When I say flow art, I mean spinning props like #hulahoop #leviwand #puppyhammer #poi #staff #silkfans #firefans etc.
I love #languagelearning. I studied #German and #Spanish as a kid, took #Japanese in uni, and I'm currently studying #ASL #Cree #Tokipona #Spanish and #Chinese. I also dabble in #French and #Latin sometimes and I'm learning #Greggshorthand to write faster. Cree is my favourite language and Spanish is my second.
I've been cursed since childhood with that lovely trifecta of #heds #pots and #mcas. Healing slowly but surely.
Hope I get to meet even more cool people the algorithms would normally drown out on other social media sites. I love it here!
Ollas drying in the sun. The funny pointy ones are upside down. Those are for houseplants—a new design.
Most of my houseplants are low maintenance (different types of pothos & succulents) but I have a couple that start to give up the ghost whenever they’re just the slightest bit thirsty. Those dramatic plants that droop and wilt when they’ve only been dry for like one day? That’s who the houseplant ollas are for. #OllasByOsa
Blue skies today so I retook the daffodils pic with the willow oak (Quercus phellos) in the background.
Which pic is better? https://mastodon.world/@jblue/114179925692540009
Super productive day today! Not only did I get to sow my courgettes, peppers and chives, but I went a bit mad and sowed a bunch of flowers as well :) Also built a greenhouse! So the setup has had a massive upgrade!
Are plants trying to tell us something? If so, it’s likely through Tarun Nayar, a biologist-turned musician who connects cables from his custom-built modular synthesizers to mushrooms, fruits, leaves etc., and transforms their bioelectric signals into captivating sounds. Atlas Obscura has the story and a link to the tunes:
Anyone live in southeastern Pa and familiar with #gardening ? We have an enclosed patio that gets maybe three hours of late sun per day . The rest of the time it’s filtered sun. What potted plants would you suggest? #Plants
Alright, all you #wetland lovers - I'm digging all the #MarshMadness photos you're sharing, but I hope you're also preparing for #Swamptember and #Bogtober this fall and #Fenuary early next year!
Let's make this happen.
