POTD: Star Of Bethlehem

Posted on

Pl@ntNet had a little trouble with this one. It didn’t show up in World Flora or USA Flora but, finally showed up in Western Europe Flora. In the Asparagaceae family (which includes asparagus…yum), its genus & species is Ornithogalum Nutans. In this case, it is a Drooping Star of Bethlehem. ~Vic

      And, I am so glad. This has been a bitter cold winter.

      Now…if they would just leave TIME alone. I am sick of DST.

        I saw they want to make it stick forever. Nation wide. I would like them you live it on our regular Standard time.

          If they make DST permanent, doesn’t that put us in a different time zone? What morons…
