I used to LOVE squeezing those seed pods as a kid. So satisfying! Like opening a can of refrigerator biscuits but without the abject terror part.

The estimated efficiency with which energy was transferred to the seeds was low (0.51+/-0.26%, mean +/-SEM, n=13). The mean seed launch angle (17.4+/-5.2, mean +/-SEM, n=45) fell within the range predicted by a ballistic model to maximize dispersal distance.”

nostr:npub1p860mphjw84r8wx4hk0aynaw8q0ad266xd9xlc73qepgt27tulmsvcd3js my garden. I’m turning my front yard into a native plant forest landscape. I’m mid-Atlantic/South near the coast
nostr:npub14hals7mg55wgdj0lwv3p2th0lk5jz9whseagcqkcjamvqqmlf4fsckpqf0 Apparently, the juice is also supposed to be good for treating bug bites, poison ivy, and nettle stings. That's what I've heard from people at least.
Also, they way they shimmer like silver underwater is amazing.
nostr:npub13yvfpqnffc9zd8z5h5drlv27qjgnqkh5d0gdv2gv8jnpsev0922sxfpfth one of my friends tried it for poison ivy and it didn’t work on them but that might just be them. They are hugely allergic.
My favorite wildflower is flowering now. 🥰
Impatiens capensis, jewelweed aka “touch me not” (the seed pods explode if you touch them)

nostr:npub1zrdg72cljxegglrhtsse5j7736c9axwwse3swu3jw4wu0s4cflvsgz4wkv Sissoo spinach is a perennial vegetable, very easy to grow and only needs a sunny windowsill. They can only be grown by cloning and there are many sellers on etsy. It's easy to propagate: trim a stem, stick in damp dirty and it'll grow roots and leaves in a week or two. Occasionally feed with nitrogen rich fertilizer.
Tastes like lettuce. I did a thread on it a while back.

Will probably start fruiting next year. Isn’t she so pretty? So pretty, SO PRETTY!
