Ginger pot's mulch is done. Now I will let it grow a bit, then get out the macro lens to try to see how many types of mosses I have.

The ginger is under the crumbled moss and coir mix. Outside the stones, I'm taking pinches of the clumps of moss I've gathered and spreading them a bit with my fingers to thin them out, for a patchwork of mosses. The coir is just a thin layer of mulch to cover the more unsightly soil. I'll scan parking lots after the rains tomorrow, mosses should be bright and clean. I gathered the stones in Long Island, where they gleamed against mossy lawns.

I already have a pot of grocery store ginger going, but when I saw how many growing nubs are coming out of this root, I couldn't resist. I broke the root into pieces last night, they will dry until tonight to callous over the wounds, then I will plant them in a window box type planter :).

Today I explore one of my coral stones. The fossilized skeletal ruins of a community, a city of tiny clones building ribbons of walls that now gleam like bones bleached in the sun.
