Ran out of places to put all the new houseplants, so I've now got greenery in every room, including the bathroom! Hope it likes steam and semi-regular accidental exposure to cleaning products 😬

This is infuriating. A rare plant was removed from the US Endangered Species list despite 90% of its population occurring on one Washington golf course. The result was fairly predictable. The golf course mows it down, and we have a completely avoidable extinction risk of not only an important pollinator plant, but an Indigenous first food too.

"Duke University has decided to close its herbarium, a collection of 825,000 specimens of plants, fungi and algae that was established more than a century ago. The collection, one of the largest and most diverse in the country, has helped scientists map the diversity of plant life and chronicle the impact of humans on the environment.

The university’s decision has left researchers reeling."

Licorice ferns grow all over the sides of big trees in the forests of the Pacific Northwest. These are covering the branches of a Bigleaf Maple.

I am looking for a #database #reference book or #encyclopedia about #plants 🌱

Preferably as detailed as possible 🔍 Latin name, height, use, temp range, soil & nutrient requirements, etc.

Any leads?
