Today we described a new species of 'desert hyacinth': Cistanche mimii, from the Middle East. Welcome to science you beautiful thing ✨
Published in #Phytokeys.
The science of this is way beyond me, but sharing because I'd never even heard of agromining (extracting rare metals from plants) and I'm fascinated.

New paper on the cultivation of three nickel hyperaccumulators in their natural growth environmen led by Dimitris Kyrkas - International Journal of #Phytoremediation (tandfresearch.bsky.social)

Bourbon Rose, Madame Isaac Péreire, not quite at her peak. When she opens fully, the intensely fragrant flowers are cupped, and packed with petals. The buds showed first colour 23rd May. I am very patient. Bred by Armand Garçon, 1881, parentage not recorded.

Σε διαβούλευση τέθηκε χθες το νέο πλαίσιο προστασίας της Γυαρου και της θαλάσσιας περιοχής της. Στόχος να διασφαλιστεί η προστασία της ως σημαντικός οικότοπος και ιστορικός τόπος.

#OrchidsOfRhodes 2025 - Today we encountered another fabulous #orchid haul with much of a rather windy day spent at altitude seeking botanical jewels among the phrygana. Ophrys ferrum-equinum and Ophrys korae were the #orchids jostling for choice as my favourite today @mariposanature.bsky.social
