A selection of late summer wildflowers growing in the riparian zone along the Monongahela River at the Friendship Hill National Historic Site.
From top: Paleleaf woodland sunflower (Helianthus strumosus), also known as pale-leaved sunflower, distinguished by long leaf petioles and a pale leaf underside; common sneezeweed (Helenium autumnale), a water-loving aster whose dried leaves were once used to make snuff; cardinal flower (Lobelia cardinalis), whose scarlet, five-lobed flowers draw hummingbirds as pollinators; the closely-related great blue lobelia (Lobelia siphilitica), which early settlers once used as a treatment for syphilis (wishful thinking); and blue mistflower (Conoclinium coelestinum), or wild ageratum, a native aster that has become popular as a garden plant.
Tumblr media
As a note, about a dozen sunflowers call NC-WV - SW PA home and they readily hybridize, often complicating identification. Pale-leaved sunflower has a tall, branching structure up to 7 feet in height and dense clusters of large flowers. In addition to long petioles and a pale leaf underside, this sunflower has a smooth stem with a whitish bloom to it. It's a very beautiful mid-to-late summer aster and one of my favorite wildflowers of Central Appalachia.

Need help growing Wildflowers
I got some Native Wildflower seeds from the city to support pollinators but the packet has a QR code for the instructions.
So annoying! Not everyone has a QR reader readily available to them.
I'll assume it's too late in the year to plant them anyway (It's July now).
Packet contains:
Common Milkweed
Lance-leaved Coreopsis
Sweet Joe Pye Weed
Sneezeweed
Sweet Ox-Eye
Evening Primrose
Grey-headed Coneflower
Stiff Goldenrod
Arrow-leaved Aster
Hoary Vervain

Hot And Dry Wildflower Walk, 6-4-23
Leucanthemum vulgare (Oxeye Daisy) on 6-4-23, #943-60. Hello, everyone! I hope this post finds you well. I decided to go for a wildflower walk on Sunday afternoon even though it was bright and sunny and the temperature was already almost 90° F. There was a nice breeze, so it wasn’t so bad. We haven’t had much rain and it seems many of the wildflowers I usually see are non-existent. Only the…

are there any kinds of "bush medicines" you've used, whether by yourself or under the advice/provision of your marrkidjbu? Can you share those stories?
What are some(I say some but really I mean: tell me all about it please) medicinal plants found in Australia? Are there some specific to regions like NT or are they relatively widespread?
I don't know how to word this properly but hopefully I'm getting my message across. I am deeply deeply curious about medicines you can't just go down corner shop to get.
Here's a list off the top of my head of bush medicines I've used. I've also added where you can find the necessary ingredients involved (that I'm aware of, anyway.
Allowed maggot therapy when a cut on my heel got infected. (Flies are fucking everywhere in Australia.) Once the maggots cleaned the wound out I dumped them and left them in a pig I hunted. You're welcome, maggots. Breed and prosper. This wound then had an emu bush poultice applied for antiseptic and it was wrapped until it healed. Scarred but I didn't need to have my food lopped off so I'm considering that a win. [WIDESPREAD]
I've drank red gum kino for my cough. It worked for about two hours before I had to drink more. [WIDESPREAD, I used Sydney red gum but it seems most if not all red gums are so tannin-rich that this works]
Banksia nectar for cough syrup. Holy shit does this work. [NEAR THE COASTS, especially the southeast and southwest]
I've made poultices of paperbark leaves and applied them to wounds. In my experience the wounds heal better and scarring is lessened if you do this. You can also steep the leaves and drink to treat coughs and sore throats. [EAST COAST SOUTH OF BRIZ]
Emu bush, emu bush, emu bush. Whether it's steeping and using it as mouthwash/to gargle or steeping and flushing wounds with it or applying it to wounds as poultices, I've used it. Emu bush is naturally astringent and antiseptic. If drank, it helps remedy headaches and induces sleep. I've used it to treat my insomnia. Treat this plant with the respect you'd show wattle, as it's sacred and is used in ceremonies. [WIDESPREAD EXCEPT TOP END AND FNQ]
Witchetty grub poultice. Hear me out. It works for burns well. You have to cover it with something or it'll dry out though (I've used gauze but cotton cloth with also work). [RED CENTRE, however "witchetty grub" is a general term for the larvae of certain species of moths and I reckon any species with the moniker of "witchetty grub" would work]
Goat's foot. Crush and cook the leaves, then apply to whatever part of you is hurting. It's a topical pain reliever. I use it for burns (and sometimes sunburns) and animal stings. [COASTLINES]
Wattle blossom: hung in the sleeping area to help promote sleep. This is more a "folk" medicine than a bush medicine--in the sense that I have no idea whether or not it actually works or how--but I'm personally convinced of it working. [WIDESPREAD]
Common sneezeweed: drank as a tea for coughs, colds, or chest infections. I used it for my cough. It didn't work very well (not as well as gum kino) but my cough is also because of an allergy which may be why. [WIDESPREAD BUT ESP QLD AND VIC]
Varnishleaf: applied to stings. Chew up the leaf and juice, then apply to the sting. I'm not sure if it has some osmotic effect or if it outright neutralises the venom, but it works. [WIDESPREAD EXCEPT TOP END AND FNQ]
Australian Sandalwood: chew nuts into a paste and apply to small wounds like scratches or scrapes. Leaves can be ground into a poultice and applied to irritated skin. The wood can also be burnt, with the smoke being a mosquito repellent. Like emu bush, treat this plant with the respect you'd show wattle, as it's sacred and is used in ceremonies. [SA, SOUTHERN WA]
Eucalyptus tea: used for treating fevers, chills, and general body pains. Tastes very fucking bitter and you can't drink a lot of it because it's also toxic in high quantities. Back in Oz I would start my mornings off with a cup of eucalyptus tea when I ran out of coffee. [WIDESPREAD]
Broad-leaved paperbark: Chew new leaves to treat head colds. Steep and drink to treat headaches and chest colds. [EAST COAST]
Maidenhair ferns: Astringent and emetic. Steeped as tea and drank to induce vomiting, or leaves eaten raw. Roots also eaten to induce vomiting. [TOP END, FNQ]
Zamia palm: Nuts are eaten raw to induce vomiting. [SOUTHWEST WA]
Indian beech tree: All of tree is poisonous. Leaves are ground and steeped in hot water, then strained and the water is drank to induce vomiting. Additionally bark may be steeped for the same effect. Extremely bitter. This is used before certain ceremonies to purge the body and stomach. [TOP END, FNQ]
Wild cowpea: Roots are eaten to treat constipation. They're better cooked. [EAST COAST, TOP END]
Pale turpentine bush: Steep and drink to help minimise symptoms of tuberculosis and fever. I've used it for fever. [SOUTHERN SA, WESTERN VIC]
Rosary pea: Roots are eaten to induce abortion. I've never seen this used in a person but I'm aware it works. I have however seen it used in a dog that would not have survived if the pups were carried to term. [COASTAL QLD, TOP END]
There's other's I've heard about--Coelospermum decipiens decoction used for contraceptive, the juice of young sandpaper fig roots used to treat skin wounds and blemishes, etc, but the above is what I've seen personally be used, or have used myself. :]

Sugar Maple (large orange leaf)- the sugar maple is the primary source of maple syrup. Seeds from the sugar maple tree have to be exposed to 45 days of temperatures below 39° in order to break their protective coating to germinate.
Helenium autumnale (yellow bulbous flower)- Also known as common sneezeweed. Common sneezeweed does not cause seasonal allergies, despite its name, which comes from the leaves of the plant being used in snuff to cast out evil spirits.
Lance-leaved aster (skinny plant with white flowers)- This plant was introduced into parts of Europe, where its production of chemicals causes harm to other plants and has been named an invasive species. Aster has been used by indigenous tribes to treat wounds, nosebleeds, and fevers.
“Lead white May have helped the painted occupant of the Goguryeo tomb remain fresh, but then he was already dead. The pigment has seldom been a friend to the living” (pg 46).
I thought that this passage was interesting because it never occurred to me that lead paint had been around for so long. When I think of lead paint I think of houses that were painted using lead paint and it feels like more a recent discovery than being used in the B.Cs. I also found it interesting that even though all these people that were using lead paint and wearing lead-based makeup kept dying, there was no movement to stop the use of lead based products.

Plants:
Goldenrods -- A perennial species native to North America. They typically grow in open areas like meadows.
Common Sneezeweed -- A flowering plant in the sunflower family native to North America. Common names include sneezeweed and large-flowered sneeze weed.
Crookedstem Aster -- Native to eastern North America, this flowering plant in the aster family can be found almost exclusively in the eastern U.S. and Canada.
Attendance Prompt #2:
"Most children will, at some stage, try mixing all their favorite paints together expecting to make an extra-special color. They will gather fire-engine red, sunny-sky blue, and perhaps some Care Bear pastels and begin stirring. That such a mixture results not in something beautiful but in an irretrievably murky dark gray is one of life’s first hard truths." (43-44)
This passage reminded me of the saying "quality over quantity." Sometimes we try to stuff too many things onto our palettes, or into our lives. Although often born out of good intentions, taking on too many things at once leads to a sub-optimal result.

I went on my walk behind campus on the Allegany River Trail!
Common Sneezeweed (yellow) - This flower is native to North America. It has been used as a snuff which causes individuals to sneeze witch supposedly casts out the evil spirits. The plant is poisonous to many animals including dogs and cows. Sneezeweeds have been known to cause cows to have bitter milk.
Balsam Fi (green on left) - Most often found in Canada and the Northeast United States. Native Americans used Fi for medical purposes for several years.
The large plant in the middle of my paper I was unable to identify. My best guess is a type of Scaldweed but I am not 100% sure.
Attendance:
On page 40 of The Secret Lives of Color the quote about the color white representing wealth was something I was unaware of before. “ White has long been intricately connected with money and power. Fabrics, including wool and cotton, had to be heavily processed in order to appear white. Only the very wealthy, supported by battalions of staff, could afford to keep the fresh lace and linen cuffs, ruffs, and cravats worn in the sixteenth, seventeenth and eighteenth centuries pristine. This connection still holds true.” This made me think about how today we often take for granted the colors we have available to us both in clothing choices and paint. We can easily go to the store and pick up the color white paint or go to the store and buy a white dress. Its easy to forget how long it took us to get to a point of being able to easily produce not just white but all colors.

Trapping a Bunny
Chapter 42
Dawn arrives, along with a sealed letter on Kevins pillow. He eagerly opens and reads it, to find it’s a message from his mother! 
My dearest Kevin,
I think I have a lead in our investigation, but I need your and your friend's help to get my hands on it. 
I know you're  planning on going to Anamdael. Please find me there. I'll explain everything.
Love
Mom.
Filled with excitement, the bard goes to find his companions. When it turns out neither of them is in their rooms, he starts to panic a little bit: did they all leave? The receptionist is able to inform him that Ara went upstairs with another patron last night, and on his request delivers a message to Findire’s door, received by his bodyguard (named Seirilipsys). 
Ara comes out of his meditation to the news that one of his companions needs him urgently, and when he learns it’s Kevin, quickly heads downstairs, leaving an apologetic message for Findire with Seirilipsys. (A: ‘please don’t make me sound pathetic)
Kevin is relieved to see Ara and excitedly shows him the letter, but the swamp elf responds that while he’s happy for him that his mom got in touch, he doesn’t see how they could continue the investigation without Raiden. Kevin proposes they find Raiden, then. (K: ‘Let’s get him to help!’ A: ‘Yes, to hell.’ K: ‘that’s almost what I said!’ A: ‘I’m a man of approximation.’) 
Meanwhile, Annori wakes up on the rooftop of the inn, sore and disappointed that Raiden never returned. She casts Locate Object on the ring he wears around his neck, walking through town to try and pick up its trail, but with no results. (N: ‘it can locate objects I’ve seen before, and, like, I’ve seen Raiden.’ R, out of character: ‘are you objectifying me, Sneezeweed?’) She returns to the common room of the inn to find Ara and Kevin standing there, who were just about to go find her. She expresses her disappointment and worry: what if something’s wrong with Raiden, or what if he was under some kind of spell? Ara counters that he thinks the man is just an asshole. But there’s one thing he doesn’t have: the shards. Annori and Kevin blink in quiet confusion, until Ara reminds them of the shards they found after battling the specter on ghost island, currently in his possession. The group collectively comes to the conclusion that they’re definitely gonna need Raiden if they want to solve this case. But they’ll have to do it quick: their boat to Anamdael is scheduled to leave that very evening. (N: ‘I think he’s just scared. Ever tried to catch a frightened bunny in the woods?’ A: ‘I would have gone for rat, but bunnies are rodents too so I guess it still works.’ N: ‘Actually, they’re not, it’s interesting because-’ K: ‘We don’t have time for this!!’)
They brainstorm a bit about how they might track him down, since Locate Object hadn’t worked. They consider asking the Copper Syndicate for help, but conclude that that might only alienate Raiden further. When Ara wonders aloud what Raiden would do, Kevin suggests he would maybe try to find more information on his own. Annori agrees, especially knowing his personal ties to the investigation now. (N: ‘What if all this time we thought he was solving this murder, but he’d been trying to solve his mother’s murder instead?’) Kevin points out that Raidens mother was allegedly a powerful magic user, and suggests there may be someone with magic in this town who knows her. Annori agrees that if those two murders were indeed so similar, Raiden might have gone to talk to Vezal in order to try to get information on his mother. 
She sketches a wanted poster of Raiden that looks well enough like him, except for the nose, which is terribly off. 
They go towards the keep and ask to speak to Vezal in the prison, but the guards announce that the investigation had officially been closed and so he wasn’t to receive any visitors. The only one allowed to see him was Lady Hartwind, who had apparently come by last night. She, however, is also unavailable and they get dismissed without answers. None of the people Annori shows the wanted poster to seem to have seen the rogue. 
Another lead cut short, the group thinks hard on what to do next. Annori reasons that there’s a high probability that Raiden will be on the same ship as them, since they’re pretty sure he’ll still want to go to Anamdael and there aren’t many other means of getting there. Kevin doubts whether Raiden would be brazen enough to take the same boat as them after making such a dramatic exit, but Annori notes that he could be in disguise. (A: ‘I could always cast Detect Poison And Disease and see if he shows up on the radar.’ N: ‘Look, Ara, your jokes are starting to get a little annoying.’)
Turning the conversation on Ara, Kevin asks him why on earth he wasn’t in his own room last night. Ara denies this and talks around it in his usual abstract manner, but Annori notices the tips of his ears turning slightly red. Ara then offers that he might have a way to talk with Lady Hartwind still, but he’d have to go back to the inn to check. When Kevin offers to accompany him, he absolutely insists on going alone. Kevin exclaims that he’d better not be running away like Raiden did. Ara reassures him that he won’t, but still won’t share what he’d be doing exactly. Kevin pleads ‘come on, no more secrets!’, but Ara insists that they’re wasting time discussing this. ‘I’ll see you at the docks before sundown, Raiden or no Raiden. We can’t let one asshole ruin our lives, right?’
Annori sets out to find some animals to gain more information on Raidens whereabouts. In the environment surrounding the keep she finds a raccoon, who is nameless but upon request gets a name from her: Steve. Steve nibbles some of Annori’s all-purpose granola bars and is eager to help. But when she produces the lantern Raiden used to trap her, the little creature can sadly no longer smell his scent underneath her own. 
Meanwhile, Ara returns to Findire’s room in the inn, where the bodyguard Seirilipsys lets him in. The two of them are packing up their things in preparation of the boat trip. Ara apologizes for leaving so suddenly, to which Findire drily responds ‘it’s alright, we’re not married yet’, causing Ara to get so flustered he quickly emphasizes that it was only a joke. Ara then asks him, in between a million polite disclaimers, if there’s a way he could arrange a meeting with Lady Hartwind for them. Findire is confused as to why; would she know where his missing friend had gone? (A: ‘… So okay, there was this murder-’) Ara fills him in on the important parts of the story as quickly as possible, to explain why talking to Lady Hartwind might be a good lead. Findire remarks that it all sounds quite convoluted (A, out of character: ‘Yes, there’s this thing called a Google Drive with summaries you could read up on.’), but he’ll give it a shot. He thinks it’s best if Ara doesn’t accompany him, though, which he assures him is nothing personal. (F: ‘When should I ask her?’ A: ‘How fast can you run? Super inappropriate question, forget that, so sorry.’) Ara is then tasked with overseeing the packing of the ambassador’s effects, with absolutely no use of lethal punishment in any circumstance. 
Kevin takes the familiar road back to the market square, where he finds the caravan of the potion merchants. Xadrynk greets him happily and says he had a great night with Riani talking about potions. He gathers his things, giving Kevin his seasickness cure, and bids the halflings farewell. Together they head to the docks.
In the meantime, Annori scoured the docks for cats, but to no avail. She sits and thinks for a while, then remembers the poster she made and decides to show it around to some more people. At last her hard work pays off! One merchant says he saw a fellow like that inquiring about quick means of transportation to Anamdael last night. He doesn’t know whether he found answers or not, but informs her that the boat she has tickets for is the only one leaving in that direction for at least two weeks, though there are also horse drawn carts that follow the road. Annori thanks him and gives him a silver piece before rushing back to the harbor.
They all meet again as dusk draws nearer. Annori tries Locate Object again, but the ring seems unfindable. As a last resort they think of finding Lilwen Lale, who seemed to really know how to get under Raidens skin, and gave him some kind of letter the last time they spoke. Might she know how to track him down? Just as they’re discussing this last-minute plan, passengers for the boat start to arrive, including two men in plate armor who seem intent on helping the crew load the cargo. Annori eyes them sharply, trying to determine whether one of them could be Raiden in disguise. They seem to know the crew, however, and both men are slightly taller than he is, as becomes clear when they approach to offer help with their bags. The one speaking to them is a human with a square build and short braided hair, and the other a half-orc with a wide, happy grin. As they’re escorted onto the boat (named the Pathfinder), the half-orc introduces himself cheerfully as Remington Fletcher, Fletch to his friends. He jovially points them each in the direction of their own private sleeping cabin, but quickly gives them their space when they seem in no mood to reciprocate his excitement. The group huddles in one of the tiny cabins and discusses what now. Annori is pretty convinced that Raiden is on this boat with them - seeing as the only other readily available mode of transportation involves horses and they all know what a miserable rider he is. She does a quick walk around the boat with Detect Magic to see if she can spot any magical disguises, but besides the magical engines and some personal items of the passengers she doesn’t find anything noteworthy. Kevin suggests casting Zone of Truth and just straight-up asking everyone if they’ve seen Raiden based on the poster. (N: ‘and if one of them comments on the nose, we know we got him!’)
They sit in the corner of the dining area as other passengers slowly start coming in. Annori states that they have a week to trap a scared bunny. All they need is a carrot. Kevin notes that Raiden always expressed great interest in meeting his mother. Maybe discussing their imminent meeting with The Fable out in the open would draw him out? Ara doesn’t believe Raiden would react openly to that. In fact, he doesn’t even think he’s on the boat at all. 
Remington waves at the group as he spots them, and Annori and Kevin wave back, much to Ara’s annoyance. ‘Stop that, we’re not here to make friends. And also, he’s creepy. Who smiles all the time??’
Suddenly, Ambassador Findire approaches. He introduces himself to Kevin and Annori and asks if he can speak freely in front of them. (K: ‘Wait did Ara sleep in your room??’ F: ‘A gentleman never kisses and tells.’ K: ‘so kisses, hm? You deserve a drink!’)
Findire explains that he couldn’t get much out of Lady Hartwind. But she did say she doesn’t actually recall going to see Vezal last night. This causes everyone in the group to perk up. Annori says ‘oh my God I bet it was Raiden!’, then punches Kevin in the arm out of sheer excitement when she comes up with the idea to turn into a mouse and run across people’s feet to see who flinches. Findire quietly asks Ara what the fuck they’re talking about, and Annori quickly introduces herself. ‘I also make a great bear, actually.’ F: ‘I’m sure you do. Ara, your friends are delightful.’ A: ‘Yes, that’s the word.’ K: ‘You are a great influence on Ara, sir.’

Early fall color along Dunkard Creek at the Mason-Dixon Historical Park. Most notably, broadleaved goldenrod (Solidago flexicaulis), also known as zig-zag goldenrod, is now in bloom. This is one of my favorite wildflowers of any season - it grows in gorgeous clumps with brilliant gold flower spikes and broadly-ovate, sharply serrated foliage. It’s better behaved than most goldenrods and is ideal for a bright pop of autumn color in a native wildflower garden.
From top: broadleaved goldenrod, one of two species in this area with flowers growing from the leaf axils; blue wood aster (Symphyotrichum cordifolium), a common woodland aster that blooms right up to the first frost; garden phlox (Phlox paniculata), also known as tall phlox and fall phlox, a tall, wetlands-loving perennial that blooms from July through early October in Central Appalachia; sneezeweed (Helenium autumnale), which loves the marshy edges of ponds, lakes, and streams; short’s aster (Symphyotrichum shortii), a woodland aster with a special fondness for limestone bluffs.

Hey! I love your blog so much, and I'm so happy that I found it (it's helped a lot)! I was wondering if you could do a list of flowers that mean (or fall into the category of/are similar to): Obsession, Obsessive love, 'til death do us part, I want your attention, I belong to you, you belong to me, etc., etc. Along with this, I'd also like to know what flowers are native to New Jersey (And also which ones bloom in the fall, if any?) Thank you, and have a lovely day!
That should be possible with some creativity given that obsession and bonding don’t exist as meanings themselves, but it leans well enough into the Victorian flower language to get something out of it still. Hope there’s something in here that works for your story.

daphane (rose) – I desire to please
eschscholzia – do not refuse me
euphorbia – persistence
fleur-de-lis – I burn, flame
foxglove – I am not ambitious for myself but for you, a wish, stateliness, occupation, insincerity, youth
furze – love for all seasons/occasions
gladiolus – you pierce my heart, generosity, I’m sincere, flower of the gladiators
heart’s ease – you occupy my thoughts, forget me not, think of me, thoughts
heart’s ease (purple) – you occupy my thoughts
hemlock – you will be my death
honeysuckle – generous and devoted affection, bonds of love, the bond of love, devotion, I would not answer hastily, fidelity
honeysuckle (coral) – the colour of my fate
honeysuckle (wild) – generous and devoted love
japonica – sincerity, symbol of love
jasmine (indian) – I attach myself to you, attachment, separation
laurestine – a token, I die if neglected, delicate attention
mallow (syrian) – consumed by love, persuasion
rose (carolina) – love is dangerous
shepherd’s purse – I offer you my all
spindle tree – your charms are engraven on my heart
tulip – (a) declaration of love, perfect lover, fame, beautiful eyes
tulip (red) – declaration of love

I’ve been messing around with making my own lino prints. I have an old t-shirt that the decal came off of that I want to spruce up, but I want to practice first. This is based off a photo I took (same one as my banner pfp) of a goldenrod soldier beetle on a common sneezeweed
