Euphorbia (Chamaesyce) maculata
All righty everyone. It's late so the lesson is right short so we can get right on to the spurge du jour. And the lesson is, er, pity the poor terrapins for no one knows where they have got off to.
Crumby yer just makin' that up. Ye have nary a lesson, do ye?
Well Red, actually I may not have a formal lesson, but perhaps we could do some brainstormin' on the general subtopic of terrapin rarity in these parts. We could perhaps theorize on how the CB could assist the poor terrapins by gettin' em a government grant, maybe.
Crumby, nobody came here this evening expecting to theroize extemporaneously on government grants for terrapins. If you had wanted us to do such speculation, you should have warned us so that we could do some preparatory information gathering on such a potentially worthy subtopic. Now, no more shenanigans. Let's proceed to the spurge.
All righty then. Ray, could ye give me a hand here.
Sure nuff Crumby, since ye were so polite with me over my mail.
Er, all righty then. Here we have two pictures of the same spurge.
The first picture is eerily beautiful for some reason I can not explain, and the second one shows some seeds and a capsule. Note how the hairs lay down flat on the capsule. This spurge is fairly common throughout much of Texas and has even managed to become a weed in Europe somehow. I got this one in Matagorda County recently and only collected it because of my wicked past that interfered with my rememberin' that I already had several of these previously collected from diverse locations.
Say Crumby. Terrapins er vegetarians if I recollect correctly. Perhaps the terrapins couldn't bring theirselves to eat eerily beautiful plants and that's what thinned em out. Was that yer lesson, maybe?
All righty then Ray. We don't want to go there. And ye take that evil eye off of em Crumby. It's high time we headed fer the Goddess' bedstead alternative to roundin' out the night with a scrap.
All righty then Red I am indeed amenable to a good night's repose on the Bosom of the Goddess and I certainly do wish the same fer my good friend Crumby and his lost terrapins.
Ray!
