Nature is but an image or imitation of wisdom, the last thing of the soul; nature being a thing which doth only do, but not know.
- Plotinus
So, while I am excitedly monitoring and documenting the progress of my seedlings and preparing my container garden for the first transplants (as well as respective posts too, of course, to be published soon - I can't wait to transplant my first veggies!), I also have been working on a number of posts about houseplant care and plant nutrient needs. While at it, I realized how often plant parts and aspects of their life cycle are referenced; and I thought, at this point, it would be useful to post an entry just about that.
In the process, the glossary has been extensively updated, so I will take the chance to highlight that feature of the blog - check it out. The post includes a simple factsheet embedded below and which you can also directly view and download here.
This entry focuses on flowering plants, and it is pretty elementary. But it never hurts to revisit the fundamentals, and it does make for better plant care and gardening to know your botany - well, the bare bones of it.
