Have you ever thought about the behaviour of plants? It might look like they are just sitting there, slowly growing, but there is a lot more going on than meets the eye!
Let’s talk about the Canadian Anemone. If you are walking after supper you might miss glimpsing these beautiful flowers. However, in the afternoon they are spectacular. That’s because they close up for the night to protect themselves from the cold. However, Yellow Salsify demonstrates a very different behaviour. Do you like naps?—they do. Sometimes they are called Go-to-bed-at-noon because they close up around lunchtime to avoid the mid-day heat. Two very different plants—two very different behaviours. Keep adventuring. You are Always in my Prayers. Love Mom. Canadian Anemone location: NPT near line 81 Yellow Salsify Location: NPT behind the Barber St. Apartments
