@presentcorrect @french_dispatch Reminds me of this vintage @NewYorker cover (with a dash of Tintin!).

Cheers to 2020! 🍾 Traditionally, on St. John's Eve (23 June), English girls picked Moss Rose (Rosa muscosa). If, on New Year's Eve, the flowers were still pink, a lady's lover was faithful. #NewYearsEve #NewYearsEve2019 #HappyNewYear #PlantLore #HistSciArt
@LeifBersweden Richard Folkard's 'Plant lore, legends, and lyrics' is a great resource for plant lore! Including this charming anecdote...🍊https://t.co/Nm62IfPjmg
Today is the first day of Advent, which means we are now well on our way to Christmas! Hoping these cheerful Poinsettias brighten your #December1st!

Even if you are in Canada, it is not too late to plant poppies for the spring. Simply scatter the seed on the surface of the earth (or snow) and wait for Don Cherry to appear, complaining that immigrants don't garden enough and probably couldn't keep a houseplant alive.
