The is particularly stunning when you consider that it's normally grown as a food plant.

The word for today is understory.
I'm going to opt for an older style fact sheet with a resident of said area.

Wow this JCrew ad that’s running on Instagram — what is this building and where is it?

"Keep rare plants in your living room or garden, a horticultural charity has urged people in Britain, because creating a “national collection” can save pollinator-friendly plants from becoming extinct."

Can anyone identify this plant? (Asking for someone not on social media.) Thanks!

Sacred Datura (Datura wrightii - nightshade family). Lots of these around right now. They're pollinated by hawk moths.

📷 This Chinese Fringe Flower blossom is on the tip of an 18" stem growing alone next to the big shrub in the yard—the shade tree I sit under. I glanced over from my chair, and the flower was being tossed around by the breeze, in an out of the sunlight.

Question: If there are zero blossoms on the larger, identical shrub or other new growth beside it, how/why this one? The bush bloomed in April and bore flowers into June.

I have to pack some lanky Finger Jade for travel. I'm planning to loosely wrap each in tissue paper, then place in boxes. They're so delicate - started as pups.

Finally ran the weedeater over the septic field. Usually I only do this once or twice a year, but it's been unusually wet here this summer and as a result I've had to clear this area over a dozen times!

I have Seek and Merlin Bird ID in my phone. Seek is for identification of plants, fungi, insects, and some animals. Merlin is for identification of birds, including analyzing spectrograms of bird calls.

Now I just need something for identifying minerals… it really is like having a tricorder in your pocket.
