your favorite things

Ah I see.
Indeed.

My favorite tree is a cherry blossom tree. Second favorite is a weeping willow.

Not sure if there's a formal definition, but weeds definitely are mostly invasive plants that grow way too quickly, or plants that compete against agricultural plants in farms.

Shy mimosa is pretty much just a weed here but I've seen pots of it being sold for a high price in other countries!

[Lemon Cheesecake]

I looked up the mimosa plant and they use it in perfumes!

Have you tried making perfume with your "weed" silverberry?

[silverberry]

Oooh I'm not sure if it's the same mimosa? Shy mimosa grows low on the ground and closes its leaves when touched! Haven't encountered any that has a scent, though there's a thorn right by the base of the flower HAHA

I'd love to try making my own perfumes! Going straight to flower extraction seems like too big of a leap, though. Perhaps I'll try it when ethanol isn't in high demand anymore-

[Lemon Cheesecake]

I think I'd be obsessed with watching it open and close its leaves! Amazing though how some plants can do that...kind of like the venus fly trap does too.

[silverberry]

Despite it being so common, I always go out of my way just to make the leaves close LOL so I feel that!

Plants move so slowly so it's amazing when we can notice and watch them move around

I'm sorry
But
When Lem asked about perfume from weed, I instantly thought of the drug.

In other news, my favorite Minecraft tree is jungle

[Lemon Cheesecake]

Npixelz, that is one smell I do not like ...makes me nauseated!

[npixelz]

Is that the one that smells like a skunk?

[Lemon Cheesecake]

Skunk...skunk cabbage ( also Considered a weed)... have no idea why people don't mind smelling like they got sprayed by a skunk... but strong or rotten smells have always bothered me.

[Gingerale]

I love flowers with a sweet scent.

[silverberry]

Not a fan of just those scents, but perfumery is weird - a little bit of something stinky can turn the scent sweeter!

Big fan of smoky scents!

[npixelz]

I don't like scents that much, I prefer dollars.

My favorite Canadian stereotype is that we live in igloos

[Lemon Cheesecake]

That was worth a chuckle, Npix! I prefer dollars over doll hairs.

My favorite caramel hot chocolate was back in the grocery store!
