Eye Candy Friday

November 6, 2009 By Carole

more round red leaves

I don’t know what this little plant is and, frankly, I never noticed it until it turned bright red this week. Aren’t the leaves so cool?

Have a fantastic weekend!

    Very cool plant! The spots look like they’re painted on in gold leaf.

    Seriously cool. The marks on the leaves are sort of like a lace pattern…

    Love the color and the spots that look like seeds. Someone will know what it is.

    The leaves look like butterfly wings. I kind of want a sweater in those colors now.

    You knew I would ask, didn’t you. Actually, once I considered it in greens, it reminds me of a plant I have often seen clustered with others in dish gardens from the florist.

    Very cool. I like the spot pattern on the leaves.

    The spots on those leaves are really neat. I can’t quite put my finger on what it is that they remind me of. Have a good one.

    This plant reminds me of the “MONEY PLANT” Lunaria annua. The leaves on the money plant are round, off-white, very thin and see-through and have many seeds inside that you can easily see through the flesh of the leaf. That’s what this one reminds me of!
    GREAT SHOT!!!

    Happy Friday and thanks for sharing the beautiful leaves of New England with me.

    Very interesting! The spots are probably much harder to see when the leaves are green. I’m with Gale: they do remind me of butterfly wings.

    I can just picture this being used in a Batik fabric – very interesting (and pretty)

    So cool!

    Happy Weekend, my friend.

    I think it is a “Smoke plant” Cotinus I think is the spelling of its Genus name. They come in green and red varieties and the flowers are very small and ‘smoky’ looking hence the name. I have a deep red/orange variety here and a red/greenish in Oklahoma.

    Gosh yes. They are painted so exquisitely. Love the detail!

If there’s one thing the pandemic has been good If there’s one thing the pandemic has been good for, it’s my sourdough game. I actually started learning about making sourdough bread a week before the stay at home orders thanks to @sprboston as he shared his starter and recipe and technique with me. Since then I have kept Mama Cass fed and alive and have baked many loaves of bread. This one might be my best one yet. I did the final proof in the fridge for 24 hours and baked it from its cold state. Great spring and ear and crumb, it was delicious with dinner tonight. #sourdough #sourdoughbread #lookatthatcrumb #lookatthatear #homebakedbread #imadeitmyself #homemadeisbest
