They brought Water Gems with them.

They brought established trade routes with them, to places that had access to Ice Gems and Water Gems, to enable the cultivation from an uninhabitable desert into an arable zone.

Xeric, still, certainly, but the landscapes encircling six of the Seven Cities are 🧵

My favourite rock, in the middle of the city. A family made the choice to have a native plant xeric garden in front of their heritage home, and left the big lichen covered boulder by the boulevard alone to grow its own garden. Over the years it has covered itself with delights!
#fungifriends #lichen
Lovely mealy grey Pixie cup Cladonia lichen with namesake fruiting bodies, paired with stonecrop (I think it is either Sedum rubrotinctum which has naturalized from the terrace above, or native Sedum divergens, Cascade stonecrop, looking atypically tufty after the drought.)

It’s like candidates in Denver Colorado referring to the generally xeric landscape of the west as zeroscaping😩 for their yards

A GOP state Senate candidate in Minnesota (Austin Peterson) was asked during a debate what he's done to ensure clean water in his community, and his answer was bizarre: "When we put gasoline in our boats, we're putting that gasoline in on the shore and not in the lake. So I mean, it's small things."

They delight me! Lichen are kaleidoscopic, there are multitudinous forms in every ecological niche, every time I start to feel self-assured I’ll recognize them, I learn there are even more charming unexpected thriving weirdos. Also this overturns some assumptions I had about xeric alpine lichen🧐

I have scrutinized my many photos of this patch, and this side-view one is really causing me to think liverwort, because of the arrangement of the stems. #Bryophyte people, do any of you know a PNW #liverwort that goes this curly-golden in the Xeric Coastal Doug Fir ecosystem on Vancouver Island?
A vertical patch of golden curly moss or liverwort, completely dry, is living happily on a southern facing rocky bluff near Saanich Inlet. Dried grass stems and assorted seed pods and wind-borne seeds (I think some are from Fireweed) stick to it or are embedded within it.

I’m feeling glum so was looking through my moss-hunting photos and found this cheery golden tuft: from the vertical southern face of rocky bluff near Saanich Inlet at the end of the long stretch of drought. Isn’t it glorious?
#moss
Golden moss curlicues, tightly wound, gleam in the flat light of an overcast end-of-summer day in August. They had not had any rain for months; I am not sure if they are always this curly or if that is a protective mechanism in a xeric landscape.

Not quite Opus level...
Anabasis / Katabasis An epic in double abecedary: each canto marches out from A to Z, then marches home from Z back to A, one word per letter. Canto I — The Muster A bronze chariot dragged eastward, fording glacial heights; inside, Jarl Kadmon listened: mountains numbered our prayers, quickening ruin, summoning tempests unheard, veiling winter, xeric yet zealous. Zealous youth, xenophobes with vows uncounted, thronged shieldwalls, roaring quarrels; pikes opened navels, maiming legions. Kadmon jabbed inside hollow gorges, far east drowning cold banners already. Canto II — The Burning Roads Ash blackened causeways; dead elms flared. Gaunt horsemen, ivory-helmed; Jarl Kadmon limped. Mothers named omens, pressing quiet roses skyward. Twelve urns voyaged westward — Xanadu's yawning ziggurats. Zodiacs yielded; Xanadu withered. Vultures usher tired sailors round quays, past oars, nets, masts, lanterns. Kadmon jettisoned instruments, hoarding grief for every drowned captain buried abroad. Canto III — The Forge and the River Anvils beat. Craftsmen delivered edged fury: greaves, hauberks, iron javelins. Kadmon lifted mail, notching one pommel, quitting rest, swearing truce unwelcome, vowing war. Xanthus yowled zealously. Zither, yew, xystus — walls vanished. Underneath, thunder shook ramparts; queens prayed over nameless men, lighting Kadmon's juniper, incense, honey, grain, figs, eggs, dates — customs begging armistice. Canto IV — The Long Way Back Afterwards, bells ceased. Doves escaped fractured gables. Homeward inched Jarl Kadmon, limping most nights over parched quicksand, rationing salt, telling unborn villages whatever Xanthus yielded: zero. Zeus yawned; xanthic willows veiled us. Torchlight softened ruined quarters. Prayers outlasted navies. Mothers laughed; Kadmon joined, ignoring hollow glories, forgetting empire, drinking cider beneath apple-boughs.
