1. Many of my mutuals on Twitter mentioned this app and I consider it.

After the seeing news about the block feature being altered as well as AI advancing on posts, I decided to create an account here.

I was going to gradually switch over, but it seems that everyone mostly prefers Twitter.

Sure, why not

Okay folks, it’s commission time!
Example prices and pieces in 🧵

Other flowers that grow bracts instead of petals include Flowering Dogwoods, Bougainvilleas, Calla Lilies & Related Plants (Arums), and Bananas, Etc (3/3)

Cuetlaxochime (Plural) are native to México, naturally growing at the edge of forests. During the Winter months when days are shorter, the extra darkness triggers the plants to grow flowers and the leaves surrounding them turn bright red or other vibrant colors to attract pollinators (2/3)

La Cuetlaxochitl aren’t quite flowers either, at least not in the way most know them to be

The tiny yellow-green beads in the center are the actual flowers. While the vibrant petals surrounding them are modified leaves called “Bracts” (1/3)

if you're lgbt, if you're black or hispanic or muslim, if you're a woman, if you're part of any sort of marginalized group

it's the most unfair thing that you have to keep fighting

but I beg you

please be brave
please be safe
please try to survive

#RoseWednesday

For a more a slightly larger bloom (they shrink while drying), reflex the rose before drying by gently folding the petals back

Gives a more *blossomed* effect after they’re completely dry

I strip the stems clean of leaves & thorns, tie the stems to a hanger, placing them in a way so that none of the rose heads touch, and leave them in my closet to dry out for about a week

Hang them upside down, in a dry, cool, completely dark place (Helps preserve the structure & some of the color)

Wdym you don’t dry roses and display them for the Autumn & October Season?

Eerie, yet still Beautiful. 🍁🥀
