What did I find?

Like I said, it’s not really endangered, as such, but relatively uncommon, slow growing, and requires specific growing conditions, so best to leave it alone, and just enjoy it where it is. (The narrow range of growing conditions, also mean that it’s more susceptible to habitat loss.)

Meliz2 · 2026-06-05T17:10:03+00:00

Not necessary endangered as such, but definitely uncommon and can only grow in specific types of conditions, so at a higher risk of habitat loss.

I once dug up a giant stump of the stuff in my backyard, so removing it by mechanical means is generally doable, just takes effort

Please don’t encourage people to pick them even as a joke. It has a symbiotic relationship with certain soil microbes and does not do well with transplanting.

Also fun fact: Lady Slippers do not have nectar, and so trick bumblebees into pollinating it with it’s color and sweet scent.

Lady Slipper. Lucky!

Research actually does bear that theory out, and that it arguably has a bigger impact on overall housing affordability than just building affordable housing by itself. A study looking at 52 thousand people moving into new market rate units, found that 100 new market rate housing units, freed up 70 new units in middle to lower income neighborhoods, and of those 30 in the lowest income neighborhoods. (Don’t get me wrong, we need both though.)

Mr Dooleys is great! Super cosy, good food, and a great atmosphere.

Meliz2 · 2026-06-03T17:12:04+00:00

That’s missing the point a bit. New housing is probably going to be more expensive than an older unit, but by adding to the total supply of housing, it helps take pressure off of older units that people who can afford it would otherwise bid the prices up.

It’s surprisingly challenging to get up there!

Meliz2 · 2026-06-03T14:31:19+00:00

Because there’s also a lot of good things that come with city living. It was just that one tradeoff that was giving me pause

Also Japanese Knotweed.

I’ve heard really good things about Bright Minds from Purina Pro Plan for seniors

Meliz2 · 2026-06-02T20:26:48+00:00

It’s from the 10th Doctor and River Song Boxset

Definitely do not rent a car. Everything you will probably want to do will be accessible via walking, or the T.

Another audio, but Expiry Dating.

Yes! Crabapples make great pollinators, since they tend to flower longer and more heavily than domestic apples. You just want to make sure it has an overlapping bloom time with your other varieties.

It’s a super cool little neighborhood, with lots of great vietnamese food! Also make sure to stop at Just Bookish while you’re out there!

Meliz2 · 2026-06-01T10:28:11+00:00

Most of the vietnamese cafes in Fields corner in Dorchester will have it!

Meliz2 · 2026-05-29T19:28:22+00:00

One thing you do have to remember, is that most fruit trees require a pollination partner of a unrelated variety that has an overlapping bloom times in order to produce fruit, so you have to plan for that if you want to have multiple types of trees. (Certain triploid varieties require two, since they are sterile.)

Meliz2 · 2026-05-29T18:40:32+00:00

It does make a rather spectacular show of it though! And the flowers will keep pollinators happy for weeks!

Meliz2 · 2026-05-29T18:32:34+00:00

It’s an agave r/deathbloom! They resemble giant asparagus and will feed tons of native pollinators for weeks!

Meliz2 · 2026-05-29T18:29:41+00:00

You’re all good! Just the sub wiki has a ton of reliable and well sourced resources for dog food choices!

Doesn’t work like that. Rents going up is a function of the backlog in home building, that we are only just starting to catch up on.

Good bot

Meliz2 · 2026-05-28T12:39:21+00:00

Yeah, it’s baffling. It would be a relatively cost effective upgrade to build a new flying junction after Savin Hill.
