National Guard members do not want to be used as political props. They want to be home with their families. The only person who wants them here is Trump.
Police killed three people in DC last week and now this. When will this administration stop escalating and putting people in harm's way?

This obedient plant, Physostegia virginiana, looks like it’s sleeping for the winter…until you notice a smattering of bright pink blossoms and buds on the fall-brown stems. Confusing, but cute! #Maryland #nativeplants

My friend has been helping this #refugee family in #silverspringmd for about the past year, and with the cancellation of SNAP benefits they are in a very tough spot to cover rent this month. Any little bit helps! #mutualaid

I am considering this a successful baking experiment. It was fun, but time-consuming.

Who knew being a messy eater could be so pretty?
Metallic-green sweat bees are my absolute favorite bees... Maybe even my favorite insects. This one is really helping out this New England Aster, as it is a very messy eater.

I love when blue mistflower starts going to seed! Native plants have taught me so much about all the different types of beauty in nature and the passing of seasons. #maryland #nativeplants

The beautyberry is beauty-ing! I planted two of these callicarpa americana in my yard 2 years ago. Last fall/winter the berries were very underwhelming as it was still getting accustomed to its new home- I’m glad that this year they’re living up to their name! #maryland #nativeplants

I just adore New England asters, symphyotrichum novae-angliae. I never thought of purple and yellow as a classic fall color combo, but between these, mistflower, and goldenrods I do now. #maryland #nativeplants #bloomscrolling

Here’s some bottle gentian, gentiana andrewsii, happily growing in the landscape at Pope Farm. Did you know that bumble bees push open the petals in order to pollinate them? I think that’s cute. #Maryland #nativeplants
