This may be the most goth plant I’ve ever seen.
#BloomScrolling
#FloraLostInSanFrancisco

A plant with dark gray leaves which grow on vertical stalks. The leaves are growing thickly, so this plant fills the image.

The leaves are oblong, flat, and curve upward. At the end of the stalk the leaves are increasingly deep reddish and have a more pronounced curve. The final few leaves curve up and inward resembling a flower, and are a deeper red, almost crimson. There is a dark gray bulbous structure coming up from the top, with a slight linear detail on its surface like a pinecone bud. There are also tiny short stalks all over this thing which are a tan color.

All in all, it’s a strange dark colored plant with no real green in it, just grays and reds. It looks surreal.

The image shows a close-up view of a vibrant yellow flower with a focus on its central components. In the center, a small green pistil is surrounded by numerous yellow stamens coated with pollen. Two small ants are visible navigating the flower's interior—one on the green pistil and one on the stamens. The background is a soft blur of yellow petals, creating a smooth, warm texture that contrasts with the detailed reproductive structures of the flower.

I painted this watercolor painting of happy wildflowers - daisies and poppies - some years ago, but I still like it. So I thought I share it with you here today...

Aquí van un par de preciosos tulipanes silvestres para celebrar que es viernes. Solo crecen en zonas concretas de las partes más altas de la sierra.
#wildflowers #bloomscrolling #florespondence

Dos tulipanes silvestres entre la hierba. Las flores son de color amarillo intenso, con 6 pétalos lanceolados (mucho más estrechos que los domésticos) y un pistilo verdoso rodeado de 6 estambres.

I think I'm going to be too busy over the next couple of days to post anything much here, so I'll sign off with the photo I've used for this year's Christmas card.
I'm not naive enough to think everyone will have a great holiday period, but I hope that the next few days prove better for you all than you anticipate.

Fading II

#BloomScrolling #Nature #Photography

This is a close-up, low-light photograph of the petals of a hydrangea flower with a dark and moody aesthetic. The petals are deep red, magenta, and purple, with some areas appearing almost black. Their texture is visible, showing fine veins and a slightly rough, velvety surface. The lighting is soft and directional, creating subtle highlights and deep shadows that add to the dramatic feel.

Wild apple trees

See alt text for more info

#trees #rural #wildflowers #bloomscrolling #photography

Photograph of a mature apple tree, with fresh young green leaves and covered in white flowers, alongside a paved road in the middle of other small trees, under a bright blue sky.

There are many of these apple trees in my area, in abandoned fields and along the roads. They appear to be escapees from very old orchards and they have naturalized over time. I've heard that local growers are trying to reproduce these trees, in an effort to revive ancestral varieties of apples that are well adapted to the harsh climate.

Fragaria 'Pink Panda'

#BloomScrolling #Nature #Photography

A close-up macro photograph of a vibrant pink strawberry flower with five rounded, overlapping petals in a rich magenta-pink hue.

A bright yellow, dome-shaped receptacle (the part that eventually becomes the strawberry fruit), is surrounded by numerous stamens with golden-brown anthers.

Several other pink flowers are visible in the background, but they are out of focus, appearing as soft washes of pink and yellow against dark green foliage.

#wildflowers #bloomscrolling #flowers #macro #macrophotography

Macro photograph of the interior of a meadow salsify inflorescence, at the stage where the fruits, the achenes, are still attached together and form a sphere. Each achene containing the seed is elongated, cream-colored, and topped with a pappus resembling a small basket, which will be used for seed dispersal. The photo shows the central point where all the achenes are attached, visible through the very fine hairs of the pappus, giving the image a diffuse appearance.

Photographie macro de l'intérieur d'une inflorescence de salsifis des prés, au stade où les fruits, les akènes, sont encore attachés ensemble et forment une sphère. Chaque akène contenant la graine est allongée, de couleur crème et est surmontée d'une aigrette ressemblant à un petit panier qui servira à sa dispersion. La photo montre le point central où sont fixées toutes les akènes, en voyant à travers les poils très fins des aigrettes, donnant une impression diffuse à l'image.
