There are over 60,000 tree species worldwide. The majority of these species fall into two main categories: angiosperms and gymnosperms. 🌳 Angiosperms, characterised by enclosed seeds and broad leaves that change colour and shed annually, include well-known trees such as oaks, maples, and dogwoods. These trees, known as deciduous, offer stunning displays of colour in the fall before shedding their leaves for the winter. On the other hand, gymnosperm trees feature unenclosed seeds and are typically evergreen, retaining their foliage year-round. Examples of gymnosperms include pine, cedar, spruce, and fir trees, which often dominate coniferous forests with their distinct needle-like or scale-like leaves. With such diversity in tree species, our planet is adorned with an array of unique and fascinating flora, each playing a vital role in our ecosystems and contributing to the beauty of our natural world.🌍 #JustTrees #TreeNursery #PlantingTrees #DidYouKnow #Green #GardenDesign #LandscapeDesign

Want to make a real impact on your local environment? 🌱 Start with native plants! They're not just beautiful; they're crucial for maintaining healthy ecosystems. Native plants provide essential food and shelter for local wildlife, such as important insects, and help prevent soil erosion. But here's the thing: some non-native plants can throw off the natural balance. They might look nice, but they can be like uninvited guests at a party, taking over and not giving back. So, what can you do? Choose native plants for your garden! And while you're embracing the local vibe, why not add a touch of American craftsmanship to your home with our unique metal art? 🇺🇸 We have some beautiful new yard stakes to add some fun to the outdoor space! Share your thoughts on native plants, or visit our website to find that perfect piece of metal art for your garden! #NativePlants #EcoFriendly #MetalArt

Plant of the Day - Alocasia "Polly" 🌿 ♦ Alocasia 'Polly' is a compact houseplant from the elephant ear family, known for its distinctive glossy leaves that conjure up images of an Amazonian jungle—despite not being from the Amazon (or any jungle, for that matter). 🌴 ♦ Fun fact: Alocasia x Amazonica is a hybrid produced by crossing two other Alocasia species: Alocasia Watsoniana (which is now more correctly known as Alocasia Longiloba ‘Watsoniana’) and Alocasia Sanderiana. It was bred in the 1950s by Salvadore Mauro, a Florida greenhouse grower who owned the (now defunct) Amazon Nursery and named the new hybrid after his business. All this means is that technically speaking, Alocasia Amazonica ‘Polly’ doesn’t have a natural habitat, and it certainly did not originate in the Amazon or anywhere near it! Do you follow? 😜 ♦ In the home, this plant will appreciate a windowsill spot with plenty of light, but not too much harsh sun. Also, don't let it completely dry out between waterings! 🚿 ♦ This plant is truly a favorite among many plant enthusiasts, as its dramatic, leathery leaves are sure to cause a double-take by those passing by. 😍 If you're interested in hearing more about the Alocasia 'Polly,' feel free to stop into our shop at 2005 Pearl Street or drop you comment below👇 #plants #plantlife #plantsarelife #alocasia #alocasiapolly #elephantear #biophilia #biophilicdesign #interiordesign #plantsmakepeoplehappy #plantsoflinkedin #boulder #bouldercolorado #downtownboulder
