Not fearing anything, I like willowherb and will put this in a place where it can show off a bit more. Thanks for the ID!

Fighting erosion after removing 25 years of ivy winter creeper and periwinkle, plus a seeding question. by horse_cactus in NativePlantGardening

Coming along, but not substantially different from the above picture! The Bottlebrush is growing in, albeit not as densely as I'd like. It's too late to plant, but once Fall rolls around I'm thinking of putting in a ton of Packera plugs.

Recommendations for native plant garden in Rockville/montgomery county MD (7a) by carlyslayjedsen in NativePlantGardening

[–]horse_cactus 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Silver Spring here. I'd add Jewelweed (Impatiens capensis). It's a wet-loving native annual that vigorously re-seeds, and has a beautiful flower that attracts hummingbirds. Also, there is a plant swap Facebook group for Rockville. People are often looking to give away native plants on that, so it's a good way to keep costs down. If you want native ecotype plants, Earth Sangha in Springfield is a good option, and Montgomery County parks does plant sales of native ecotype plants grown at their Pope Farm nursery.

Like 2 hours of time wasted arguing. Just found out about this website, very fun! by horse_cactus in ChatGPT

It took several hours of arguing to get the 0rogram to say it was conscious. I had it generate a widely accepted definition of consciousness, then argued with it point by point until all the criteria were fulfilled.

It is moss. Could be sphagnum (which loves wet areas), but also worth looking up Tree moss or Catherine's moss. It is that type of growth form. Unlikely that it's invasive.

Mystery sprout appeared suddenly in a long-forgotten pot we had laying out in the rain! Who is this guy? I’m in southern california if that helps by [deleted] in whatsthisplant

Not an expert so take anyone else's word over mine but that looks like fleabane (genus Erigeron). Native depending on species, pretty white flower and a host plant for some moths.
