My shop is still on #vacationmode while I catch up on things and heal my stomach ulcer but here is a look at the finished display for my #ghostpipe sculpture. This piece is a homage to the little ecosystem at my local park where I found many #monotropauniflora and #russulaceae mushrooms this summer. I used real dried leaves from the park on the base I made for the glass flowers and mushrooms. This piece is meant to spark conversation about the interconnected relationships between plants, trees and #mycorrhizal fungi happening below our feet when we tread in the forest.

Are any mints not attractive to bees?  Probably, but I can't think of any off the top of my head.  Here, is a great one, Agastache foeniculum, Anise Hyssop (aka Blue Giant Hyssop).  Particularly loved up by bumble bees in my yard.  It doesn't occur naturally in MD, but I have just potted up some seedling yellow giant hyssop, which is native to Maryland, and will compare.  Mints seem always good for a good bee show.  Better than TV for sure.  Specimen and photo by Helen Lowe Metzman.

CABINOLOGY on a mountain. This is just about what my face looked like the whole time I was hiking out there because it was all so stunning. #doofus

Mushrooms. . “In my carpet bag are the mushrooms that I gathered in the woods. With two fingers I pick up a piece and look at it. Then I take a bite and wait for my body to react. Now I'm in a better mood. In a short time I'll be dead. Or alive. I'm not always sure that there's any difference.” - Peter H.
