๐Smoshblr December Asks Day 29๐
top 3 trees:
Red Oak -> there are a couple of them in the forest of my hometown and they are so stunning to look at every time! โค๏ธ
2. Weeping Willows -> now these I mostly see when I go on walks in the town where I study ๐น They just have such a calming and mystical vibe ๐
3. Magnolia! -> Both their blossoms and the wood itself is so beautiful! They may not bloom that long and often suffer from frostbite, but I'm always excited when I spot one at any place I visit! ๐ฉท
top 3 flowers
Forget-me-nots -> such pretty blue colour! Plus I really fell in love with them due to "Elsa's Song" by The Amazing Devil. One of the few things I'm very certain about getting tattooed on me some day ๐
Hibiscus -> childhood reasons... I became obsessed with them after seeing them on the bellasara card pictured below... (I wasn't even a horse girl by any stretch, but this card series was def one of my first ever fixations as a lil kid) ๐
Delphinium -> a) they are extremely pretty imo and I always look for them when I visit a botanic garden somewhere! b) they are called "Rittersporn" in german, which is also Jaskier's official name translation in any witcher media around here ๐น๐
bonus under the cut <3
top 3 other plants:
Ivy -> they may be incredibly invasive to a lot of ecosystems and even houses but like... they look so cool! And I love me a good corruption theme in nature ๐
Canola -> You might think after 9 months of research and experiments, I'd be sick of them by now; but it only made me appreciate them way more than before! ๐
Algae! -> okay, technically this is cheating, bc this is a) very broad and b) not even a plant; but I just love them, okay?! ๐น๐
extra bonus shoutout: favourite microorganisms
(cause while I love plants, these are the mfs that I'm more likely to actually encounter in class/work)
Cyanobacteria! -> the true mvps of the microorganism world! Without them life on this planet as we know it today, would simply not be possible! <3
Saccharomyces cerevisae -> If you want a simple yeast experiment to go right, you can almost never go wrong with these lil guys <3
Methanobacteria -> despite the name they are actually archaea, not bacteria so vital for both catching and actually using industrial exhaust gases without letting too much methane get into the atmosphere (which is way worse than CO2 btw) although I cannot rec working with them, cause the ones I used produced a lot of H2S, which is not a pleasant smell to be around ๐
