Petunias and snapdragons

‘Seek righteousness and meekness…’ Zephaniah 2:3

Why do we say cup and saucer?

Not

Saucer and cup?

Because it moves around in our mouth well!

Really!!

Because the higher cup is perched on the lower saucer 🤣both are siluran deposits, not for drinking from.

‘Why’ is not always answered.

White and lemon.

Or

Lemon and white.

Here are five facts about snapdragons:

1 Name – Antirrhinum / dragon flowers or because you can make the flower mouth snap by squeezing it laterally, we say snap dragon.

2 It is native to rocky areas in Europe, the USA,Canada, and North Africa.

3 It can be planted in a rockery, herbaceous border, or, as in my garden, a container.

4 Snap dragons are important as model organisms.

Definition: “A model organism is a non human species that is extensively studied to understand particular biological phenomenon,  with the expectation that discoveries made in the model organism will provide insight into the workings of other organisms.”

5 They are best known as annuals, but I have had a well established plant growing well for two seasons in a border.

Here is a joke

‘ Just wanted you to know I have entered the snapdragon part of my life. Part of me has snapped. The rest of me is ‘ draggin…’

Have a cup and saucer day. It is better than being inside out!
