Maybe it's pure laziness on my part (double Taurus after all) but I really can't be bothered much to work with plants that I can't find in my environment. There are enough of them - right here - that I could spend the rest of my life getting to know them and deepening my relationship with each and never get anywhere close to them all.
If something new finds its way in, I tend to assume that it's meant to and contemplate why this is happening.
This post is brought to you by tiny blue chickory blossoms on the side of the road. I first met chickory in Nola and never realized that it was growing right here, under my nose, the whole time.

Christmas Botanicals Series: Black Hellebore
Next up in the christmas botanicals series is the christmas rose, also known as black hellebore. Hellebore is a flowering perennial with evergreen leaves in the famously poisonous Ranunculaceae family which also contains aconites (wolfsbane), delphiniums, meadow rues, clematis species, and ranunculus (ranging from wild buttercups to ornamental flowers).
Hellebore contains saponins, cardiac glycosides, and other toxins. While ingestion of hellebore may not be deadly to humans, it is incredibly unpleasant. Symptoms include contact dermatitis, burning skin, burning of the mouth and throat, stomach pain, nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, dizziness, confusion, and irregular heartbeat.

Hellebore was one of the first documented chemical weapons used in warfare. The Greeks used the potently poisonous leaves to taint the entire water supply of the sacred city of Kirrha in 585 BCE to end a 10-year siege. It did not kill the residents but incapacitated them with vomiting and diarrhea while the Greek army invaded and slaughtered the entire population by the sword.
Hellebore has been venerated as a powerful plant by multiple ancient civilizations and was included in medical texts by the likes of Hippocrates and Theophrastus.
Black hellebore eventually became associated with christmas due to its evergreen leaves and naturally blooming in winter near the older date of christmas from the Julian calendar. Like mistletoe, the association is likely older than christianity and it was also brought in the home during the dark of winter to protect from evil spirits, ghosts, witches, and illness, but unlike mistletoe hanging in the roof rafters, hellebore was supposedly strewn on the ground with the rushes. Like hanging mistletoe, people in the British Isles and Europe continued the protective practice after converting to the new religion. Today the practice has changed to decorating with hellebore flowers for christmas.

Update on my attempt to relocate feral honeysuckle to a pot on my front porch because even though it's invasive I really do love to look at it.
(Spoiler: It worked, because honeysuckle is Like That.)

I really loved how I kept seeing people make warrior cats fanclans/comics/fics set in places they've lived/grew up, which got me thinking about what an Appalachian warrior cats would look like. I was just thinking about it as a fun exercise...and then I fell in love with the idea...and now I'm writing it.

I've had this plant for a while, and I'm think I'm doing good in keeping it alive so far.
Everyone meet Willow. (Yes I named it/her)

It's an African Spear plant.
I know its a succulent, but I'm still proud of myself.
