Found a good video on getting into natural dye ! Have you tried this? Let me know in the comments!

A lavender shortbread cookie with a latte. ‘ Urban-Foraged’ (Totally capitalistic consumerism) but all was not lost I spotted James, a UF student, studying, and touched his shoulder inquiring how he was. He shared difficulty recalling information during exams… I asked “Do you know about ‘Rosemary For Remembrance’ ? He said ?!?! I explained, encouraging him to fact check it, and added that it also works with Lavender or Mint. Cotton-ball with a drop of essential oil in pocket to whiff during exams (must be same scent as used during studying!)

I smashed it, NO Lavender stain. A while later, I doubled checked to confirm. Just moisture making paper transparent in sunlight. Two fresh specimens growing near where they were in Autumn. Like many Floridian species, Just bloom whenever conditions feel right, there aren’t seasons here in the traditional sense.

If you knew you were about to have a lot more land to plant stuff what would you plant? What would you start winter sowing now?

Here's an easy way to narrow down what kind of tree you're looking at by just the branches.
