Of All the Many Happenings, Only the Flower Can Bring Such a Simple Beauty by Mark Stevens Via Flickr: An image captured walking along a path in a grassy meadow with wildflowers like the firewheel in bloom. My thoughts on composing this image was to find an angle using the LCD LiveView screen on my Nikon SLR camera with the flowers and have a balance across the image.

Gaillardia pulchella (Indian Blanket)
Also known as Firewheel, Sundance, and Indian Blanket Flower, this plant is native to Mexico and Southern/Central United States, from Arizona, to Florida, to the Carolinas. It tends to grow best in sandy areas with a hot, dry climate, but can also be found in urban vacant lots.
The Indian Blanket is the host plant to the larva of the Bordered Patch Bitterfly and the Painted Schinia Moth.

Neville Longbottom X Little! GN! Reader: Green Thumbs Pt 1
Summary: Neville and Reader taking care of his plants.
W/C: 766
Tumblr media
Neville always held a passion for herbology, it was something he always loved and it was how he managed most of his childhood. He thrived taking care of something else, watching his hard work grow sturdy and strong. He loved talking about what plants could be used for and where they can be found for. 
Caregiving was something he had less experience with. He had only been doing it for about a month or so. He took on a caregiver position for his partner of almost a year. The role was taken on entirely in a spontaneous manner. Neville accidentally knocked over a box, causing the contents to spill across the floor. 
Neville was quick to start cleaning up the mess he made. However, he stopped and sat up when he picked up a pacifier that was too big to be for a newborn. He sat staring at it, the cogs in his head turning. Then it clicked, they were an age regressor!
Neville was reading a psychology book in the library, he thought it might show him a way to get over his shyness and he learned about age regression. He was surprised to see that it was a trauma response or a response to a stressful situation. Neville understood needing to cope, and he was not going to judge how others make it to tomorrow. 
Neville was quick to put away the mess, and even quicker to tell his partner what he found. He told them what he knew and how he read about it. He was soft and loving, and soon enough he was their caregiver. Each day he tried his best to care for them, some days being easier than others. 
Today was an easy day. Neville and (Y/N) were in the greenhouse, they were caring for Neville's plants. (Y/N) was a little less helpful, as they played with their toy watering cans and babbled at the plants. Meanwhile, Neville was repotting, pruning plants, and watering them. 
Neville was lost as he was working on pruning his Dittany. Soon the sound of bare feet pattering filled his ears, and soon their little head popped into his line of sight. He couldn’t help but smile, “Hi baby, what are you doing?”
“W’s Tommy’s?” (Y/N) asked, Neville stopped. They did not know a Tom. Who was his baby talking about?
“Who?” Neville asked fully turning to them. A muggle succulent was quickly shoved into his face. Realization appeared on his face quickly. “Have you been naming my plants baby?”
“Yeah, don know dem!” They replied, rocking back and forth on their feet, feeling shy about not knowing the plants. 
Neville took the plant and placed it on the table, before swooping down to pick up (Y/N) and placing them on his hip. He then spoke, “That one is Euphorbia milii. It’s a muggle plant. Do you wanna know about my other plants baby?”
“Yesh peas, dada.” They said back, trying to grab their paci from the front of their overalls. Soon they were suckling on their paci as Neville spoke. 
“Baby, do you remember what dada said about this one when we first got here?” Neville asked, pointing at the baby mandrakes he was growing.
“No touch!” They slurred from behind their paci. 
“Yeah! Good job baby! Why do we not touch it?” Neville asked, patting their bum as they thought. 
“Cause dey no wike it?” They said, Neville smiled. It was close to enough for him.
“Yeah, and then they scream and it could hurt your little ears!” Neville said. He began wandering around before stopping at the other ‘no touch area’. “Now why can't we touch these ones?”
“Poky,” They said, fully resting their head on Neville’s shoulder. Pointing at pretty flowers, “wat dat?”
“That is called a Gaillardia pulchella, but their nickname is firewheels. They are also a muggle plant, they like to live where it is really hot and really humid!” Neville answered, raddling off facts. 
“Humid?” The word was slurred and sounded like an alien language to them. 
“When the air is really wet. I forgot my baby was so little, I will be more considerate of that baby!” Neville said, while lightly tickling them. They tried to curl into his chest away from the tickle monster. Once he was done with the tickle monster, (Y/N) pointed at more plants. 
Neville was proud to be able to show his little one all of his plants and teach them. He knew some days would be hard, but today? Today was easy. He could do today.

Gaillardia × grandiflora (blanket flower “Arizona Sun”)
Most plants that people grow in their gardens are of Eurasian origin. This is easy to explain. Some Eurasian flowers have been actively cultivated for thousands of years, and that’s a lot of time to develop different colors and shapes. However, the Americas have contributed a number of species of note. 
One such international hit is the blanket flower. This cross between Gaillardia pulchella and Gaillardia aristata (called Gaillardia × grandiflora) has cracked the code and is now grown in gardens all over the world. It has even escaped cultivation and is now considered ‘naturalized’ in China and South Africa

No fungi today, but I had to give some love to all the wildflowers in the park.
Pictured we have:
Cutleaf daisy 》 Engelmannia peristenia (1st image)
Fire wheel 》 Gaillardia pulchella (2nd image)
And of course, Texas Bluebonnets 》 Lupinus texensis 💙
I wasn't able to identify the little butterfly that was resting in that flower, but the little fella is just adorable.
No prairie fire 》 Castilleja indivisa (my favorite native wildflower) in this spot but my god, the roadsides on my drive to school are alive and bursting with colors. It really cheers me up after a rough day.
Southeast Texas, 20 Mar. 2024

Antilocapra americana, Sept 2023, ink & fountain pen.
I've been thinking about the pronghorn's place in the ecosystem, surrounded by plants that evolved long before its ancestors and having outlived its ancient predators...
Wildflowers shown approximately from left to right: perfumeballs (Gaillardia suavis), dwarf four-nerve daisy (Tetraneuris linearifolia), sundrops (Calylophus berlandieri), woodsorrel (Oxalis sp.), prairie pansy (Viola bicolor), and firewheels (Gaillardia pulchella).
