Landscape Language Binate (adj) – growing in pairs In botany, binate refers to plant structures that grow in pairs. The obvious example of this at Mount Rainier is of course twin flower (Linnaea borealis). Twin flower is aptly named for its binate pink blooms. This common low-elevation plant grows along running stems across the forest floor. The flowers have the faint scent of almonds. Have you observed twin flower during the summer? ______ NPS Photo of twin flower, 7/10/17. Description: Several pairs of pink trumpet-shaped flowers on short stalks above a mat of small green leaves. ~kl

Twinflower, Linnaea borealis, is known as a subshrub (aka dwarf shrub). This beautiful summer-blooming plant with delicate pink trumpet-shaped blooms lives close to the ground of dark forests. When it is not actively blooming, it is easy to overlook this perennial plant.

[Images Description: Stalked clusters of the same kind of delicate pink trumpet-shaped twinflowers rise above the forest floor, where olive colored moss intermingles with bright green oval leaves of the twinflower plant.]

I succumbed to my hubris. Meet Deta and Pola L’rae! Two wandering sister-knights that haven’t fully revealed their origins to me. They are a set, represented by the Linnaea flower! (Also known as the twinflower!) And a cosplay of their origins for fun.

[berriesgonebananas]

since they’re both officially part of the household, my two pink spouses!!

i didn’t originally intend for borealis to be a spouse, so that was a coincidence! i didn’t berrify him, he was just one of the kids at cypress’s party aw

also, again a total coincidence, but their names together are the scientific name (with a spelling alteration) of the flower Linnea is named after: Linnaea borealis

I know it's a trend that perhaps died long time ago but I don't care about trends so I decided to flower crown icon of Hemmer with a crown of pink twin-flowers (Linnaea borealis) a flower that grows in northern places.

Monday and Tuesday I worked a bit with Kevin. We removed all the Linnaea, formerly Abelia, from around the pool house to make way for Mediterranean planting. He also showed me how to take care of chickens, in the event that more are purchased this year. Kevin only has one more week here, then Sebastien has one more week. Then who knows who will work in the glasshouse and potager...

Tuesday after work, on my drive down the hill to my place, I saw a bird of prey finishing up his latest meal of pigeon.

Wednesday M. et Mme. returned from Switzerland, so I spent the day tidying up around the house.

Thursday we bottled olive oil for M. et Mme. to take back to Switzerland. After both Michel and Karim broke a bottle each, Karim came up with an inventive way of attaching the lids to the bottles - he used a clamp and with each squeeze the clamp tightened the cap until it popped on. I didn’t try. I applied the labels to the bottles. Later in the week, I saw it for sale in the butcher shop in Biot.

Friday we had a meeting at 8.15 with M., Mme, Michel, Karim, James et Bruno to place the new trough for the donkeys and look at the new garden. It lasted two hours. After that it rained incessantly the rest of the day. I managed to take some cuttings of the Brugmansia I later chopped down. I started clearing an area due to be replanted in the last stage of the new garden. Later, Sarah-Jane and I treated ourselves to another pizza because it is rumoured that we will be back in confinement either next week of the following.

This week I heard something scurry across my ceiling, in the attic, I’m guessing squirl, it sounds huge. Also I asked if I could have screens put on my windows before the summer and mosquito season. Unfortunately, the screen guy has Covid at the moment, so our meeting was cancelled. I also occasionally hear a strange knocking noise, that I haven’t been able to figure out where it’s coming from; perhaps my house is haunted.

Saturday I did chores around the house and met up with Mandy and Barbara in the late afternoon. Barbara is from Marin County. We enjoyed getting to know each other and she has a bit of work she’d like me to do around her garden. Sarah-Jane treated me to an outstanding dinner of barbecued ribs, corn on the cob, baked potato and coleslaw.

Sunday morning I started with my daily French lesson. I am finally back in the routine of doing a bit of French every night. It’s taken eight weeks. It’s hard to believe I’ve been in France now two months. It also means my CDI contract is now permanent. I’m hoping my Carte Vitale arrives just after my third month anniversary, when it should appear.
