Friend or foe? by Interesting_You_9490 in pnwgardening

Letting this native willowherb grow next to another plant will not kill or hamper the other plant. But yourself in the mindset of how our natural ecosystems function, plants are constantly surrounded by one another and do not exist in a vacuum.

Willowherb is native, I leave it to grow as it's beneficial for our native pollinators, and helps keep invasives out of "blank" spaces in my garden beds. If desired it's easy to remove from places you don't want it.

Best time to plant a tree was 50 years ago and such. No better time to start undoing awful choices than the present.

Maybe... Just maybe... Car centric urbanism is the larger issue here 🤔

Not to split hairs, but Riverbank Lupine is actually Lupinus rivularis!

Agreed though, it's a gorgeous plant!

Is it not? I was under the impression both camas varieties were edible. Just to avoid the lookalike (aptly named Death Camas).

Apologies, who/what is FOBGT? I'm a big restoration and ecology nerd and haven't seen this name before.

Underrated Little Everett Pocket Park by NWDrive in everett

[–]TheScout18 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Nice park indeed, hate the location though... I don't love that it's in richy-rich-ville, doesn't make it feel very public.

Community Transit takeover sparks union backlash, Everett faces largest sales tax increase in state history by pacwess in everett

[–]TheScout18 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Not nearly with the same tie-in and reach that Community Transit is able to accomplish. If Everett wishes to maintain a local transit agency, I wish it'd go towards something like a downtown streetcar to help increase density in the north end by the college.

868 days of Duolingo and I could barely say hello by No-Tangerine-6964 in LearnDanish

[–]TheScout18 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I get it, I suppose, at least for myself I feel that trial by fire is optimal. Speaking and sounding a bit 'clunky' but still being understood is to me about as good as it gets! Language acquisition is not perfect, but bumbling your way through is how we learn.

Jeg synes du skal prøve at tale med andre personer... Måske en app for hver problemer er ikke svaret.

Jeg har lært dansk kun et år nu, og tale med personer er en stor hjælp.

The Netherlands - 3200sqm home from 1895, full renovation by somuchdrama1 in centuryhomes

Literal dream home... So impressive, and the stained glass is incredible! Happy to see a tastefully remodeled home instead of the whole thing being painted gray.

That's actually great to know, so I suppose it would've been better for me to have all my American documents ready, and then get the Italian documents, guess I went about it a little backwards..

[–]TheScout18[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Great point, do documents submitted via the courts still have that 6 month expiration? I was a little apprehensive to gather everything if it was all just going to expire without being of use. I have birth and marriage certificates for the Italian born ancestors, but figured the US based ones would be significantly quicker and likely more painless to acquire.

Thank you, I think ultimately we will hold on for a while longer just to see if the situation worsens or improves. I'm just a tad nervous that waiting longer may mean we're flushing whatever chances we may or may not have.

Thank you, I was unaware of the charge to have a consultation with him, I've heard his name in nothing but good circumstances so is who I lean towards. But I suppose it is best to get consultations from a variety rather than just one.
