RE: Steemit Iron Chef 2017 #02 : A Wild and Free Melange A Trois with Queen Anne's Lace
Wow you really do know your root and veggie names!! A starter made beautiful and delicate by the Rose of Sharon flower petal bases...
Really want to stretch out my fingers, get ahold of one of those pretty bites, and omnomnom on it!! =P
Thanks! These were tasty bites, for sure! :D I figure it's better to be clear about what plants I'm eating, since they are often wild plants. Getting mixed up from a common name could have bad consequences. I like learning what plants are called in other places, but the scientific names are our common language.
'the scientific names are our common language' You sound like a passionate and established botanist!
hehe but a very wise notion..I respect that, though I must admit, I'm close to being the biggest noob when it comes to plant names =O=D
So many little kids love learning those complicated names of the dinosaurs. The scientific names of plants aren't any harder than dinosaur names. But kids all think it's fun, while grownups think of scientific names as work. I think of learning plants like learning more about friends. And then it's a lot easier. Get to know a new plant friend today, lol! ; )
