Ms. Que BanhI'm unsure what #Japonica species this is. I love the #variegated #speckled #foliage ๐

๐ฝ๐ฆ๐ฆ๐๐ป#Beetles #Invasive so something particularly I learned is that the #popillia #japonica (the invasive #Japanese beetle) will actually pretend to be dead when caught.
or at least that's what I have observed in the few specimens of their species that I have caught manually.
further observations can still be made, placing them inside my #vivarium.
Mike In The Garden ๐ด๓ ง๓ ข๓ ท๓ ฌ๓ ณ๓ ฟ๐ฎ๐ชIf you can only grow one shrub in your garden, then I would recommend the #Japanese milk tree or #Neoshirakia #japonica.
This example was at #Westonbirt #Arboretum a few years back.
We had taken our house dragon Dimitri along for an outdoor photo shoot, and he simply had to get a picture sitting in it.
Reasonably slow growing and #spectacular in the #autumn.

Holocluck HenlySummer Geta for Miko. She already has a nice yukata (summer kimono) for when she needs one.
There's a more subdued matching set from the same people who had the neon floral kimonos at Neo Japan, but times are tough & they'll have to wait for another time. #SecondLife #VirtualWorlds #Japonica

Miko reports back from Japonica
Oh the #Japonica event photo ops are coming through on Flickr. I'm so chomping at the bit, but we're long from done exploring everything there is to #SL20B
Tuesday holiday permitting we hope to hop on the YavaScript pod & tour from the station. (We already took their balloon tour)
Remember to get your Pod shirts (2 types) located in a couple of my exhibits & at the Tapestry Of Time. #SecondLife #SecondLifeBirthday #VirtualWorlds https://flickr.com/photos/holocluck/53007127889/

The Streets of Melbourne#CamelliaJaponica, also known as the common #camellia, or #JapaneseCamellia, is a flowering plant in the family Theaceae.
There are thousands of cultivars of these things apparently, with many colors and forms of flowers.
Did you know? ๐ค
In the U.S. it is sometimes called #japonica.
Hmmmm. Interesting!
