Spent some time hanging out with some blue #damselflies at the lake before coming back home 😊
Damselflies have existed since the Late #Jurassic period & found on every continent except Antarctica. Presence of damselflies & the larger dragonflies, indicates a healthy #ecosystem.
It's looking fantastic! One of a few that I grew from last year's seeds 😊 We grow a few types of basil, year round. My purple basil hasn't sprouted yet. These are Genova basil plants.
#Borage cutting #PlantPropagation success.
Last month, I took 6 borage cuttings to propagate. 4 out of the 6 were successful. This one developed very quickly, after developing roots. First flower buds have emerged 🙂
Selkirk Trestle Bridge. Shot from waters below.
It's a well used bicycle & pedestrian bridge that spans across the #GorgeWaterway - from #VicWest to #BurnsideGorge.
#YellowRattle is used proactively to create & restore wildflower meadows, where it aids #biodiversity by suppressing dominant grasses & recycling of #soil nutrients. This improves chances of other species of wildflowers becoming established.
Switching to - showing y'all this wonderful volunteer #buttercrunch#lettuce plant that decided to grow out of rocks in our front yard! What a lovely #edible surprise 😊
Some of the #footpath#NatureTrails we walked on today 😊 It was sure nice to see no other humans in the park. We enjoyed a lot of nature delights, loved all the birds calling & singing, saw a squirrel & muskrat in creek areas & had a lovely time together ❤️
