#PlantsInside As much as I love all plants, I'm not a house plant person 😅 this cutie was gifted recently, its called Dawidjieswortel, Cissampelos capensis. A plant medicine used as a blood purifier, to treat diabetes and used to expel retained placenta.

[the science of nectar @nectaromania]

Look at these tiny #Dioscoreaquaternata flowers from the @ArnoldArboretum! Judging by all the shine and glisten at the base of the flowers in these pictures, it looks like the flowers have #nectar! 1/2

Caught a #Nesocodon flower with one #nectar droplet still potentially lagging behind in the pH transition from acidic (~6.5) to alkaline (~9) which then prevents the red color that comes with the formation of the #nesocodin pigment. https://t.co/asSA16F0z5

@SFBGS @SFConservatory @KQEDscience One of our 40-year-olds will bloom in 2 to 3 weeks. Interested in any fresh or frozen pollen!

[San Francisco Botanical Garden @SFBGS]

The corpse flower opens when it’s warm, and its survival strategy is based on deception. It’s not a flower and it’s not a rotting dead animal, but it mimics both. A specimen @SFConservatory is blooming now. Learn more in this @KQEDscience episode:

Seniors in my capstone grant writing clss are presenting final pitches with research objectives, expected outcomes, potential limitations, timelines for their chosen topics where they found a gap in the literature! And I remember them on the first day when it was just a mindmap!
