FNPS is proud to be sponsoring this year's Groundcover Restoration and Enhancement Workshop. The past two workshops have been incredibly informative with excellent networking among native plant folks & this year's workshop should be similarly excellent. Register here: web.cvent.com/event/5a792b...

A coalition of 70 conservation organizations, including both the Florida Native Plant Society & the Ixia Chapter of FNPS and many partners (incl @flspringscouncil.bsky.social &

#BloomingNow! The beautiful southern magnolia (Magnolia grandiflora) is native to the SE states from MD to TX including most of FL. The huge blooms, both beautiful and fragrant, are pollinated by beetles. Here's its FNPS plant profile with more details: www.fnps.org/plant/magnol...

Do you think the producers could have replaced Speers today with Dan Boucher or other FNP abc correspondent?

This is why we need the Voice.

my experience with normal general practitioners is like 90% being ignored or shit on but they love me at the hospital. @ GPs/FNPs maybe youd enjoy your jobs more if you weren't such massive haters 24/7 loooooooooool

[joke born from anger do not take seriously] if we actually wanted to cut some medical costs we could just eliminate GPs and FNPs from the entire system because they basically get paid to do fucking nothing and/or make everything worse [/joke born from anger do not take seriously]

i've noticed i've had better luck with specialists than anything, they tend to get more resources/time, and they tend to be nerds about what they're doing. GPs and FNPs... asleep at the wheel more often than not 🫠

#PlantMoreNatives If you need help convincing your HOA, municipality, or other community group that native landscapes are important, we put together a 10-minute presentation that's free to download on why native landscapes are important. Download it from the FNPS website. www.fnps.org/resources/pubs

Dutton goes all out in attacking antisemitism, even going as far as making a personal trip to Israel last year. However, when it comes to our own FNPS, he goes all out in ostracising them, putting them down, objecting to them of having a voice. Dutton is NOT fit to be PM of Australia.
