Would appreciate any species identification you can provide for any of these. I would have liked to post four photos as I have split my pics into four groups: flowers, trees, small flowers/weeds, grasses/bushes/shrubs.
Will likely post the other three images over time but I don't want to flood the forum all in one go.
I usually take photos like these when out walking as I like to pay attention to what's happening in different locations/different seasons. These photos are from a recent trip abroad - not used to finding such a variety of colour. My pics are usually of different leaves, buds, catkins and twigs - all browns, reds and greens.
I often wonder whether/what people in days gone by used the local plantlife for. Would like to increase my knowledge on this as a casual project over time. Seemingly unremarkable weeds that we see all the time and fail to consider, might have been sought after commodities in pre-historic, ancient or medieval times.
I think it was when first reading about gruit that I started to look differently upon previously overlooked verges at the side of a road etc. From there the rabbit hole deepens...
If you create a post on that community with a photo of a plant, the bot will try to identify the plant and post the name in the comments.
It is still a very new bot so there are some oddities to be worked out, but it's been fun seeing people test it out.
This sounds really great, thank you very much for explaining. So [email protected] is not only spelled like, but indeed a community (have subscribed now). Never thought of such usage of Lemmy, this are really exciting times (in technology) :)
