Silver #cockscomb - very similar to amaranth.
Originally native to #India - it was saved from extinction through #cultivation because of its religious significance. #Indian , #Burmese & #Chinese gardeners usually plant them by temples.
Cockscomb is an #EdiblePlant & a pretty #grain alternative. Often consumed in southern #Nigeria, #Benin , #Congo & #Indonesia. Young stems & flowers are #edible. Seeds are also edible are referred to as #pseudocereals.
Took a friend to the #JapaneseGardens in Esquimalt-Gorge Waterway Park. They'd never been there before & really enjoyed it

My friend & fellow local activist, Mary, has organized & is hosting this #AllInclusive #Accessible #SilentDJ #DanceParty at #BeaconHillPark in late September.
She has #LongCovid & became #disabled from it. The fight to save the only long covid clinic here is still needing public support.
It's #RoadConstruction season in #Saanich

This #documentary tells the story of a #Chinese #cemetery in #VictoriaBC that became a #NationalHeritage site. For Chinese #pioneers who died in Canada, Victoria's Chinese Cemetery at #HarlingPoint was a temporary resting place until their bones could be returned home. (Traditional Chinese belief says that the soul of a person who dies in a foreign place wanders lost until their bones are returned home.) This film traces the rich history of the #VancouverIsland cemetery from controversy and neglect to its revival as a #historic site. Told by those closest to it, the story of Harling Point is a metaphor for #Canada , a country still working on making a home for all who live within its borders.

Humboldt Street Painting - 22 hours of work now (or 14 hours of painting on top of the drafting time).
I'm almost to the point where all the work will be with tiny brushes and minuscule amounts of paint. So much squinting and leaning in my near future.
