#grass tree

It took me 10 months to make this short video. It’s simply amazing to witness how these grass trees (Xanthorrhoea johnsonii) survived the bushfire and transformed from almost charcoals to full bloom in less than a year.

This Xanthorrhoea, or grass tree, brought Teddy in for a rest on its slender leaves. Dozens of years old before they will start flowering, the tall spike on this plant has sweet tasting nectar. As the lower leaves die they are cleared away by bush fires sweeping through. The bottom of these plants turn black with char and their age starts to become apparent with their increasing height.

#2459 - Dracophyllum filifolium - Needle-leafed Grass Tree

Previously known as nine other species of Dracophyllum. The generic name means dragon-leaf and refers to the similarity of some species to the unrelated Dracaena. 'filifolium'refers to the very narrow foliage. They are sometimes called grass-trees but that common names is also applied to entirely unrelated plants in Australia. This species is sometimes called the turpentine shrub, because of its readiness to burn even when green.

A shrub or tree-sized Heath-family plant, up to 4m tall, endemic to the North, South, and Stewart Islands of New Zealand. Most common on mountain slopes, saddles, and ridges.

First described by Charles Darwin's closest friend, the botanist Joseph Dalton Hooker in 1853.

There are 61 species in the genus, of various sizes and forms, found across most of Australasia. Although dicotyledonous, they resemble primitive monocots with slender leaves concentrated in clumps at the ends of the branches.

Difficult to propagate - the minute seeds are wind-dispersed.

drawings from paleo expedition to dagestan, done right on the trip. sometimes messy when it was cold and rainy, but i won't correct it. i think it's cool to leave it just the way it was done, and not retouch it after. there will be more drawings later, but those will be done from home

Here is a round-up of all eight of the free digital brush packs that I’ve released so far for Photoshop CC, Clip Studio Paint, and Procreate!

You can download them on this page (click) Type in “0″ for a free download or tip any amount you so desire!

All my brush packs are totally free (tips optional but always very appreciated!) and can be used freely in any work, including commercial work that you profit off of, with no license or credit required. My goal with these brush packs is to make digital painting feel more achievable and accessible - especially painting environments, something I now LOVE but that used to intimidate me, & felt much more approachable with the right tools! Many of the packs also come with tutorial video content. I hope you enjoy!

Honestly this whole Pedro Pascal thing is getting out of hand it's scraping insanity. One thing is to tell your friends that you want to fuck him or thirst over him in your personal tumblr blogs like the rest of us common mortals do. Another completely different thing is to have people on his Instagram and other platforms calling him daddy and commenting what they want to do with him very explicitly and to have interviewers calling him the daddy of the internet or whatever the fuck. That's harassment. It is not okay. The man is clearly overwhelmed and tired of being called obscene things everywhere he goes plus online. Like what the fuck is happening. Can we collectively chill and start condemning this type of objectifying behavior please? People need to learn to keep things to themselves. I've seen literal grown ass adult interviewers telling him this shit directly and filming his reaction. Enough
