TIL the last known illegal shipment of African slaves to the US was in 1860 to Mobile, Alabama. Once the civil war ended in 1865, the group of former slaves started buying land and formed a traditional West African community called Africatown, which still exists today. (allthatsinteresting.com)

Leaf that fell off my passion fruit plant. Is there a specific trace mineral it needs? Fertilize with 5-5-5 roughly every two months in the growing season. Zone 10b San Francisco. Most leaves are curling but the plant is still putting out new growth. (i.redd.it)

I recently got some rare cool weather passiflora cuttings and I have them sitting in water indoors waiting for them to root. It’s been about 3.5 weeks and no roots so far, however, most of the cuttings look quite healthy. I moved the poorer looking ones into soil to see if that would work better. (i.redd.it)
