Hey plant side of tumblr!!

I think my lambs ear cross pollinated with my cabbage but I’m not sure, I was wondering if anyone could identify this to check! Thanks so much!❤️

That is a Mullein, not a lamb’s ear! Don’t worry, it’s a very easy mistake to make lol. Two years ago my grandma told me to “dig up the lamb’s ear on the hillside before they weedwhack there” and i did and brought it home and planted it by the mailbox in the fall. The next summer, it proved itself decidedly not a lamb’s ear at all. Mullein are biennials, so they grow the first year, then bloom and go to seed the second year and die when they’ve finished blooming.

The flower spike will look like this when fully grown:

Lamb’s Ear has smaller, fuzzier leaves and will form spreading clumps, and its bloom stalks are much shorter with purple flowers.

Neither plant is related to each other or to cabbages so would not cross-pollinate. Mullein’s widely considered a weed and will reseed easily, so that’s probably how it ended up in your planter (if this isn’t a case of mistaken identity like mine lol)

That’s super cool! I’m glad I know now, thanks so much I’m really excited! I had a few lamb’s ear planted there last year so I assumed it was resprouting there, until it got super tall that is lol

Lake Michigan

Ocean*

I mean, Lake Michigan is big enough to be a sea. All the Great Lakes are, they’re not considered seas because they’re not all at sea level, they’re all freshwater, and they’re not directly connected to the ocean (they’re only connected through rivers and lochs)

Small lakes don’t have noticeable waves but because the Great Lakes are so big there’s enough room for the air to downdraft across it (which is also why in Michigan you get lake effect weather and so it can be a blizzard one day and 70° the next)

My grandmother, who grew up in Puerto Rico, when seeing Lake Michigan for the first time with my grandfather exclaimed, “This is not a lake, it is a sea!”

Lake Superior has tides. They’re not as dramatic as the actual ocean’s of course. But still. For every storm that kicks up 200ft spray and waves that crash over the tops of the lighthouses on the piers, there’s days when you can’t tell where the water meets the sky.

Lake Superior doesn’t have a monster, Lake Superior IS the monster.

One aspect of Lake Superior that supports that its the monster is that it doesn’t give up the bodies of people who die in it. Due to the cold, the bacteria that produce gases that typically make corpses float in water don’t work very fast, and so they don’t bloat the body up enough for it to leave the bottom.

It’s a dangerous lake, prone to vicious storms and when it gets you, it holds onto your body forever, refusing to relinquish it back to the surface.

Lake Michigan is amazing! Here’s a pic I took in 2017 from atop one of the Sleeping Bear Dunes. Getting earth, lake, and sky in the same pic is actually quite challenging… and no, you still can’t see the other side even from way up there.
