Marin Dwarf Flax (Hesperolinon Congestum) Hesperolinon Congestum is among the Linaceae family. It is categorized to be an annual Herb but also considered wildflower. Normally their leaves are not planar but linear. Their flowers are mostly congested in clusters, with slender stems that are 4-6 inches long. These flowers only grow in San Mateo, San Francisco, Marin County, California, and United State. Marin Dwarf Flax often occurs on serpentine soils, in dry native bunch grasses, chaparral or

Banksia coccinea, commonly known as the scarlet banksia, waratah banksia or Albany banksia, is an erect shrub or small tree in the family Proteaceae. It grows only along the south west coast of Western Australia, from Denmark to the Stokes National Park, and north to the Stirling Range, growing on white or grey sand in shrubland, heath or open woodland. Reaching up to 8 m (26 ft) in height, it is a single-stemmed plant that has oblong leaves, which are 3–9 cm (1.2–3.5 in) long and 2–7 cm (0.8–2.8

Paradisiacal normalis, M. sapien-tum and M. cavendishi as well as the length, width, and thickness of the leaf and the number, diameter, and tensile strength of leaf fibers. Samples were collected in Dampit, Wajak and Batu, Malang, Indonesia. Microscope slides used for anatomical observations were pre-pared using a semi-permanent method. The Retting method was applied to extract the

dependent variable was stomata density, and the independent variable was sunlight (sun and shade). The stomata impressions were made by using the nail polish to inscribe the stomata on the leaves bottom. The imprint was applied in the calculation of leaf stomata density. A t-test was used to compare the results between two variables (sun and shade). A significant difference of stomata density was observed between the leaves in the sun and shade. The leaves in the sun had the highest stomata density

Memory. Age 6. A pool near my house stays open all year round. Even when snows falls to the ground, the water remains in the pool. When the water freezes over and kids dare each other to walk across the ice. I’ve never done it, but the older boys who my brother wants to be just like all took the challenge at least once. I sit on the grass near the pool. Once, they built fence around the water, but they took it down one year for “cleaning”; no one knows what happened to the fence after that. I

My gold is my dad's snow globe from Italy. He gave me this snow globe when I was six, I enjoyed shaking it and watching the snow settle down to the bottom. It was gold to me because first it was from my dad and second it´s like a model of Italy and since I have never been to Italy it makes it more special. Then one day I was shaking it and it fell out of my hands and shattered into small glass pieces. I cried my heart out and this was when my dad was in Europe so he couldn't buy me another snow globe
