Not the flashiest thing, but this is the first flower I’ve seen open on Linaria aeruginea! Commonly called Roadside Toadflax, this Iberian native is supposedly a cold-hardy perennial so it’ll be finding a planting spot outside next spring, and develops little clumps of stems sporting slender leaves and topped in snapdragon-like flowers. This purple/yellow form is a fairly common color, but the species can come in a vast range of patterns and expressions from white to yellow to red and blotched with brown, yellow, orange, pink, or various other hues. As I have multiple plants from multiple seed origins, there will likely be a big variation once they’re all settled and blooming, and with any luck my fourth attempt at getting their relative Alpine Toadflax to sprout and grow will succeed this time, adding to the variety.

Keltakannusruoho, Linaria vulgaris

I used to call this "munakaskukka", a (bullseye) omelette flower🍳 later I found out that the flower was called butter-and-eggs in some English speaking areas of our world. So I think the naming I did as a child was some pure childhood wisdom! Great minds think alike☝️

Common Toadflax (Linaria vulgaris, Gewöhnliches Leinkraut) is a hardy perennial native to Europe and Asia, often found in meadows, roadsides, and dry, sunny habitats. Its bright yellow and orange, snapdragon-like flowers bloom from summer into autumn, attracting bees, bumblebees, butterflies, and other pollinators, thus contributing to late-season nectar availability. Ecologically, it also provides shelter for small insects and serves as a host plant for certain moth species. Traditionally, it has been used in herbal medicine for its diuretic, mild laxative, and anti-inflammatory properties, particularly in treating liver and gallbladder issues, skin irritations, and hemorrhoids, though its internal use should be approached cautiously due to the presence of potentially toxic compounds.

Oh, Vercel just released Next.js 15 and announced that Turbopack is now stable.
In their blog post they talked about the latter reaching 100% test completion and supporting Tailwind and Emotion, but not a single word on support for WyW-in-JS, on which Linaria and PigmentCSS depend on 🙄
