Got a unique challenge. I'd love input from people who are familiar with the plant life of Puerto Rico & the horticulture trade.
I've been volunteering with a park group, adding more native plants in specific areas of the park.
We're about to refurb planters, which are concrete & get hot as hell.

Boy it sure is fun having that ancient human gene where you're beyond physically exhausted but your mind won't shut up so you stay awake *longer* because that'll help keep you safe from lions, bears, and cannibals.
I am so tired 😭
‘Hey’ came before ‘hi,’ and ‘hi' came before ‘hello.’
‘Hi’ is most likely a variant of ‘hey.’
‘Hello’ is not related to either.
Goodbye.
Daily bunny no.3253 is ready for an adventure
the mantis shrimp has 16 types of color receptors.
humans have 3.
we see roughly 10 million colors and think that's impressive.

Every dog owner: ‘What’s that in your mouth?? Omigod, drop it, drop it!’ 😱

Did you know that snails have teeth 😂 I didn't
nails have teeth. Between 1,000 and 12,000 teeth, to be precise. They aren’t like ours, though, so don’t be thinking about snails with ridiculous toothy grins. You’ll find the snail's tiny 'teeth' all over its file-like tongue.
