of a leopard slug on his nightly wall patrol
This guy's been showing up every night for a couple of months, he's kind of become my new guard slug to my shop entrance. iPhone 11 pro max for scale.
Picked up a Pachycereus pringlei, aka Mexican giant cardón / false saguaro
Home Depot will undoubtedly bankrupt me. A year ago it was only “I need a new tool if I’m there.” Now it’s also a new cactus or two on the side.
Might not be the best source for cacti, but this one looked healthy enough and I couldn’t resist.
Agave ID and pup care?
Got a few of these variegated agave that have been pushing pups on runners. Some over hang as seen, not entirely sure what to do about them.
In southeastern Pennsylvania so not sure they can manage winters out here but I did plant a single one to see what happens just hoping anyone could provide suggestion on the runners crawling out of my big boys!
I believe this is a black swallowtail larva?
Beautiful creature found amongst the burbs of southeastern Pennsylvania.
One nub to rule them all
Tephrocactus articulatus var. inermis, aka Pine Cone Cactus, I think?
Another Opuntia post: 2 weeks later, turns out you can be a grower and a show-er!
Spicy or fluffy?
Just dug out an old phone only to find this cozy looking pillow. Comes with extra fluff!
Big mamma is coming to life after a harsh Philly winter
She’s a trooper
For all the weird funky folk, “Tell Your Mother” by The Floozies still grooves hard 12 years on.
The Floozies have never made me not want to dance. Ima go get busy in a Burger King bathroom.
Just love seeing Opuntia branching off into new pads off single cuttings
She’ll be an old lady soon, but she gets lovelier every day.
Edit: Incase anyone’s curious she was part of a litter left on a coworkers porch years ago. Ended up adopting her, Mew, and her derpy twin brother, Zeus. Glad the chance came to give them a home. Mew, still gets the bestest cat award, brings joy everyday.
Left an old empty quart and some rollers in my utility sink for too long and forgot about em, any suggestions on removing the stained rust on the polypropylene or whatever the hell it is. My only thought was to take the orbital to it and sand away, but there must be a better way.
Unsure this is the right place to ask but figured painter problems, so id ask my fellow painters.
