    Sunset in the pines in my garden today. This is a weeping white pine tree.

  5. The forecast is "stay frosty".

    Eglė* is photosynthesizing anyways.

    * Lithuanian word for spruce (tree) but also a common feminine name.

  6. Meet the P(inus)ra(diata)-G(ene)E(xpression)-ATLAS. This new tool provides a refined multi-omics platform for Pinus radiata that advances #conifer #research and facilitates the evaluation of conserved #plant molecular discoveries across a broader #evolutionary spectrum.

    "These lower-elevation Sierra #conifer forests are no longer able to successfully reproduce. Conditions have become too warm and dry to support conifer #saplings."

    "It's a really stark reminder of how much #climate change has already occurred, and how important it is to make sure that the amount that occurs in the future is as little as possible"

  11. The #MonkeyTree is the #hardiest species in the #conifer genus #Araucaria. Because of the prevalence of similar species in ancient #prehistory, it is sometimes called an #AnimateFossil.

    Its #seeds are #edible, similar to large pine nuts, & are harvested by #Indigenous peoples in #Argentina & #Chile.

    The tree has potential to be a #FoodCrop in other areas in the future, thriving in climates with cool oceanic summers. Like, #VancouverIsland & several coastal areas of the #PacificNorthwest.
    The tree doesn't yield seeds until it is around 30-40 yrs old though.

    Once valued because of its long, straight trunk, its current #rarity & #vulnerable status mean its wood is now rarely used; it is also #sacred to some #Indigenous #Mapuche.

    The species is #protected under Appendix I of the Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species (CITES) meaning international trade is regulated by the CITES permitting system & commercial trade in wild sourced specimens is prohibited.

  12. Taken today, looking down into the ravine. An Alaskan cedar (nootkatensis) envelopes a reblooming pink azalea, just starting again. White Lantana, red zinnias, and golden rod fill in the area. A birdbath fountain and beaded solar light take center stage.
