Tomato Pollen

This pollen is from a "Paul Robeson" tomato blossom. I have overwintered two tomato plants indoors, and I am about to make cuttings from them. These will be re-rooted and I may be lucky enough to have some super-early tasty tomatoes!

microscopic relatives


Imagine these bouncing around inside your nostrils. No wonder pollen makes people sneeze. This particular grain looks a lot like one of our dog's play toys.


These grains above are gathered around an air bubble that got stuck between the microscope slide and the cover slip. The flowers don't look at all like the pollen grains!

Good thing, too. If the flowers looked like the pollen grains, they would look like badminton racquets, which don't look like flowers at all.

Here is part of a bug's leg.That's it for now.

Finding the Light


Ganoderma is heading towards the light. And dropping its spores by the millions. Soft as silk, this sienna powder has settled on everything inside the steam tent room that the fungi live in. More is finding its way out of the tent and onto furniture, the music stand, and anything with a horizontal plane. Not to worry, I am sure it's even better than Vicks Vapo-Rub for what ails you.

Several specimens are larger and more tradiionally "reishi" looking than the little antler pictured above. Here is one.
They are all headed the same way – straight out the window.
