Here in central Florida, milkweed usually blooms and seeds once in the spring and again in the fall. Normally, I cover seed pods with wedding favor bags in order to collect the seeds and place them where I desire them to be. Combined, the areas of the front, back and side yards hold over six hundred milkweed plants, there are really too many to count. More are growing all of the time because I simply reseed the milkweed areas when the seed pods are ready. Each plant currently has multiple seed pods and as you can see from this image, on occasion I miss a pod or two when it comes to covering them.

 

Currently, I am short on wedding favor bags but more are on order. In addition to reseeding my milkweed areas I do grow some in pots to keep on the lanai to use as good clean food, free from caterpillars and eggs. That supply runs out first when I am raising monarchs and queens. I have to say I am glad the plants recover quickly. I have also given several envelopes of seeds away to other butterfly gardeners so they too can replenish their milkweed plants. It’s difficult to believe that nurseries want to charge about seven dollars per plant. I spent a small fortune when I began growing milkweed but never again will I have a need to purchase it and I like to share so I do. LOL, other butterflies are less expensive and time consuming to raise.

 

As for the seeds in this image, where they blow I may never know. I hope they get to grow and flourish wherever they land. If they land in my yard in an unauthorized location, they will be relocated to a more appropriate space.

 

Now, with this virus going around I wonder how many people have spring fever on this April fool’s day verses cabin fever. Most people I have spoken to have cabin fever. To help my friends and family, I plan to make phone calls, send texts and cute emails and play on Facebook a bit more than normal. Other than that, my normal hasn't really changed much. My thoughts are with you all, stay safe.

 

Happy April fool’s day and happy snapping 

 

Drought tolerant with wonderful yellow flowers spring.

poder gozar de un pequeño detalle

Poder sentir...

Me conformo con eso.

Weekly Themes: Texture - Rough

A close look at Canna Lily pods, with their interesting spiky texture.

 

I guess you could technically call this a macro shot, but I consider it more of an extreme closeup.

 

I really have no idea what kind of tree is bearing these odd little fruits that have become translucent and glow in the afternoon sun. I noticed them last week when I did photos with Kris & Chad. They were a little more dried this week compared to last.

My friend Gray gave me an old film camera the other day with a lovely Olympus Zuiko 50mm f1.8 lens on it ... I bought an adapter ... took it for a spin this evening ... used some extension tubes on a few shots ... but mostly enjoyed the lens ... as is!

I couldn't resist photographing this backlit seed pod. It was blowing in the wind, so it's not sharp, but I like everything else about it.

Loafing just off of Siesta Key Beach

Came upon these seed pods on the edge of a field and thought they were quite beautiful

 

Now IDed as Illinois Bundleflower by a kind Flickr-friend !

See okra pods beneath the flower on the left.

Not sure what this is, but thought it was kind of cool looking.

Everyday is Happy Bokeh Day!

Sumac red seed pods remain on plants into winter, providing emergency non-toxic food for birds. Only the female plants have the seed clusters.

My countless previous photos never captured the pod details like this one finally did.

 

I can't blame the camera anymore :)

Ontario Place Pods, Toronto, were designed by Eb Zeidler. They were originally used for exhibitions at this public park/attraction. Now much of Ontario Place needs renovation. The city and citizen groups have been arguing what to do about it -- some want to demolish it and others want to renovate it because of its cultural heritage. Grunge texture added.
