I opened twitter for the first time since October 2019. WTH is going on? Musk patting himself on the back and a thug threatening a teacher. I just wanted to update my password because scammers keep trying to hack the old account.
Thricomes
‘Davis’ Showy milkweed vs Showy milkweed. In the ag town of Davis California grew a special extra-fuzzy milkweed plant. It is Showy milkweed, like you may have seen before - only fuzzier. ‘Davis’ Showy milkweed performs best at sea level but holds its own when planted across the broad range of Showy milkweed in the western United States. While both are fuzzy. The thricomes of ‘Davis’ Showy milkweed are a bit denser and longer. It’s not a clone, not cultivar. It’s just a Showy milkweed that has adapted to look a little different.
Before I sold out of the seeds. I cultivated 44 plants and they are likely to produce fresh seeds this summer.
Flamingo Road Nursery’s milkweed in-stock are currently NOT pollinator-safe! Presumably sprayed with pesticides, monarch caterpillars hosting on the plants are dying. #milkweedalert social media source https://www.facebook.com/share/p/18nMDNnsyd/
I’m donating a lot of common milkweed seeds to the Virginia Master Gardener Group to distribute at the Virginia State Fair in September. They are some of my older collection, 2022. So I will do this germination test of 100 seeds while they travel.
Water germination if a 5-7 day process of bathing the seed in warm water. Freshen the water twice a day.
I was hit-up for cash by a guy in front of the DOLLAR TREE. I asked him if he had a bitcoin wallet. If he did, I would have zapped him the hardest asset in the world. But he said no.
I have adopted FUELED COFFEE as my preferred coffee shop based on this email from the owner.

Please support my two addictions (coffee & zaps) with any zaps you can spare ☕️
