We appreciate your posts and the following ones are randomly selected because of their botanical qualities. They are manually curated on behalf of the Amazing Nature Community.
First a brief explanation about Botany:
Botany is a broad term covering scientific study of plants. It could be from a small living organism to a tree. Included would be flora, fungi, lichens, trees and flowering plants.
Through Botany, medicinal properties are discovered from nature.
We are also interested in plants for their psychological (good for the mind & soul) benefits.
Now I would like to bring your attention to the curated posts and ask you to show some love to the amazing authors:
- @bethyjade makes her own seedbed to start the plants. If she plants the seeds in the ground, her dog will dig them up and eat them. Starting the seeds in the egg cartons so they become sprouts solved the problem.
- @tych021 examines plant tissue under a microscope. The slides contain root, leaf, and pollen samples.
- @palomot brings us images of the exotic and beautiful Philippine Ground Orchid. This beautiful plant has pleated leaves of intense green color and can produce a bloom of multiple flowers, which develop from one stem. The plant has been reported to have healing benefits ~ leaves can be used as a poultice to soothe joint pain.
- @arialvi75 presents photos and information on the beautiful Lady Slipper orchids that her sister's mother-in-law has in her garden. These orchids resemble a slipper and are sometimes called ballerina slippers and shoe orchids.
