#Feverfew is a longtime #herbal plant that's been used in ancient traditional #Chinese #medicines for generations. Ancient European cultures used it as medicine too. Feverfew is also used to make fragrances. I grow a lot of them.

I grow #ThaiMint & #VietnameseCoriander out of one of two repurposed bathtubs that I use for #gardening purposes.
Vietnamese coriander isn't a true coriander. It's actually an #edible #knotweed. Never put these into the ground if you don't want it to spread. I grow all of ours in containers. I have 2 large grow bags with lots of them growing. I grow lots of both of these plants because we use them in/with our Asian foods often.#herbs #mint #GrowHerbs #plants #Wsanec #green #botanical #nature #Saanich #VictoriaBC #YYJ #VancouverIsland #VanIsle #PacificNorthwest #Cascadia #PNW #Zone8 #ContainerGardening #AsianMastodon #AsianDiaspora #TootSEA

Native edible aquatic plant. American white water lilies at Prospect Lake in the Highlands. Nymphaea odorata. These are the only native water lilies in this area of the world. Other water lilies you see are invasive introduced species.
Beavers & muskrats like eating their stems.
Their seeds, flowers & rhizomes can all be eaten raw or cooked. Roots can be boiled to create a medicinal liquid to treat sore throats (gargle it) & for diarrhea (drink it). Many Indigenous peoples used the rhizomes to treat coughs/colds & crushed stems can be put on teeth to treat toothaches.#Wsanec #Saanich #VictoriaBC #YYJ #VancouverIsland #VanIsle #PacificNorthwest #Cascadia #PNW #NativePlants #perennials #nature #WaterLilies #bloomscrolling #florespondence #plants #botany #EdiblePlants #foraging #WildFood #botanical #Summer #lilypads #AquaticPlants #WorldInMyEyes #DisabledPhotographers #photography #LookAndLearn #peaceful

The #ClamGardens #RestorationProject has reclaimed #W̱SÁNEĆ knowledge, improved #ecosystems and provided the W̱SÁNEĆ Nation with additional funding.
From 2014 to 2019, #ParksCanada, the #W̱SÁNEĆNation and the #Hulquminum #FirstNations participated in the Clam Garden Restoration project.
Clam gardens are #AncientSites along shorelines in W̱SÁNEĆ territory that #Indigenous people tended for thousands of years to enhance the production of #clams and related sea creatures. Clams were an important source of protein for W̱SÁNEĆ people. The Clam Restoration project spent 5 years working to restore clam gardens in W̱SÁNEĆ territory. In addition to improving the #ecology of two clam gardens, the project also aimed to reclaim W̱SÁNEĆ knowledge, practices and culture related to clam gardens.

2 more pretty pink & purple #borage #flowers bloomed today 🤗 They've been visited by several bees already.
One of the #RedRose plants I rescued/dug up from construction demolition site, 5 years ago, produces a lot of #roses. They smell fabulous too!

My #VampireLily is getting ready to bloom. It smells like sweaty gym socks. It's surrounded by much better fragrant plants so we don't notice the stink much.

My #RoseCampions are blooming now.
Several plants are 3 feet tall. Once established, they're quite #DroughtResistant - also very #PestResistant & #DiseaseResistant.
If you have problems with deer or rodents eating your plants - this is a good choice as those wildlife leave rose campions alone.#bloomscrolling #florespondence #PollinatorGarden #WhatsInMyGarden #Saanich #VictoriaBC #Zone8 #YYJ #Spring #Wsanec #VancouverIsland #PacificNorthwest #PNW #botanical #Flowers #BCblooms #perennials
