Digitised from a print scanned using a Fujitsu ScanSnap S1300.
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.

This was taken last fall in my garden. The orange in the maple sets of the blue atlas cedar. A white pergola adds structure.
Went to a plant nursery today and got stuck in the #conifer section. Came away with one of the pine saplings.
Fernworthy Forest is a #conifer forest, which I think is not natural, rather being there to provide timber. There are many track through it but none are marked and so the only way to find out which way you’re going is to use a compass. I was uncertain of my precise location after a while but I knew that if we kept heading in a westerly direction, we’d eventually get to the other side.

Peeps talking at me but I loved this so
Truly #mastodonian fiery #Moon rising over #conifer #treetops in a silky deep blue #sky. Down below are the lights of a town in #twilight, in the #shadow of a hillside along #Lake #Sammamish, #PNW, #WA #US. Technically, this is a #Moonsie, featuring a #paddler in the middle distance.
Another striking #MoonPhoto retooted from #photog EZ Lorenz

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.

#ClimateChange is turning swaths of #California's #mountains into #ZombieForests https://phys.org/news/2023-11-climate-swaths-california-mountains-zombie.html
"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"
Apparently it's National #Conifer week. Happy "Ooh let's buy this cute little tree in this tiny pot that'll grow so big at an alarming rate that it'll consume our house and neighbour's houses in years to come" week to all that celebrate.

This is a great #conifer for a small space
