🧵Loom Weavers . . . Adventure Seekers!

🌸Go ahead, run through a flower garden on a sunny day!

🍉Watermelon Cookies with local honey, fresh mint, mixed berries, and jasmine blooms from the top of the vine where the goats can't reach.

🎍Introducing Lady MacDeath...The Co**se Flower! She is currently giving main character vibes as she is set to put on a show this week for the first time in almost a decade!

🎍During her brief bloom of only a couple days, she releases chemicals that mimic the scent of rotting flesh, dirty socks, garlic, and spoiled fish. But it's for a good reason.

🎍The odor attracts carrion beetles and flesh flies, which normally feed and lay eggs on dead animals but instead pollinate the plant. Isn't nature wild?!?

🎍The flowering structure reaches 6–8 feet tall, with some growing to 10 feet. With less than 1,000 remaining, my Adventure Seekers were excited to meet at the Botanical Gardens early this morning to wish her well as prepares to bloooom!
