Both the Delta Flower Scarab and the Black Swallowtailbutterfly enjoy feasting on the nectar of the Cephalanthus occidentalis, also known as the Buttonbush; Button Bush.
As we have been sick with a respiratory virus (not Covid)since Thanksgiving; we haven’t been out much due to rain and feeling under the weather. Therefore, I am pulling a few succulents I enjoy from my 2023 archives.
These are Collard Green Plants grown at The Gardens in The Farm at The Schiele Museum of Natural History in Gastonia, North Carolina. Many people in the South eat Collard Greens on a regular basis. Personally, I did not grow up as a child eating Collard Greens even though I was born in the South. My mom never fixed them. Now we ate plenty of Spinach and other types of greens just not Collards. What are your thoughts on eating Collard Greens?
