#ThickTrunkTuesday #Trees #Redbud #Iowa
The little seedling is an offspring of the stout redbud tree in the background. That tree, in turn, was a seedling of a tree in my parents’ backyard that they planted around 1970.
Last year, I transplanted 3 such seedlings to a nursery row in my garden. I was able to give away 2 of the young redbud trees this spring.

Just a Redbud living up to its name

No #gamedev these days. The weather is nice and there's work to be done outside.
We finally got the redbud in the ground, after clearing some rubble away. The surroundings are still quite unappealing, since our old house is being restored/reconstructed, and there's construction stuff all around, but it will look really nice one day 
Eastern redbud (Cercis canadensis) doing its strange cauliflory thing. I planted three in my front yard and for the next several weeks people will stop in awe and ask what species it is. When possible, I try to have small potted seedlings on hand to give to them. #trees #swarthmore #redbud #fabaceae #botany #cercis #cauliflory
Bird of the Day — Black-capped Chickadee. Kansas, yesterday
Hey, Sweetie!
North American #redbud is in the genus Cercis, & the pea family, Fabaceae, & they are a low water-use planting.

"Cercis, usually pronounced sir-siss, is based on kerkis, the Greek word for a weaver’s shuttle. Individual seeds are flat & oval & were seen as resembling a weaver’s shuttle[. Botanical names often refer to things] familiar in 1750, for example weaving [but] little known today."

My kid is up a tree, reading a book. What a glorious way to spend an unseasonably warm afternoon.

Southern live oak acorn noodles, (Quercus virginiana) with black sesame and wheat
Kombu dashi infused steamed daylily bulbs (hemerocallis) with culantro (Eryngium foetidum)
Redbud flowers (Cercis canadensis)
Spread the word: daylily bulbs are easy to peel after steaming but not before.

A dish that maybe @loren would love?
I call it “Earthworm in the garden.” (Southern live oak noodle) Quercus virginiana
In an effort to keep a composite noodle from breaking, I wound up with noodles that look like earthworms. Oops. 
In my defense, it ended up tasting pretty good.
