#iNaturalist user. Person whose appreciation of #nature in all its minutiae began in a desire to discover one's roots and sense of places, despite -- or perhaps because of -- growing up in #suburbia.

Loves #lizards, #salamanders, #turtles, and other #herps. Frequently pays attention to random #plants in urban ecosystems. Doesn't get out enough.

@Stomata Looks like a lily. Not knowing my plants, all I can say for sure is that it's a monocot of some sort, which is a huge clade including both lilies and onion. Assuming your neighbor gave you a bulb, Wikipedia suggests it's probably from the Amaryllidaceae (amaryllis family), Liliaceae (lily family), or possibly a few species from Iridaceae (iris family).

Assuming you aren't too far from where this plant is commonly grown, you could submit it to iNaturalist, where you can get ID suggestions from an AI and human IDers can also chime in, though the site is normally more meant for documenting wild specimens. But it's a handy citizen science app that helps you learn the wildlife around you and also documents them for research purposes later! (If you hate making an account, you can also use Seek, which uses iNat's AI database without an account.)

So my neighbor gave me a Onion like thing few months ago now this unknown flower. I believe Fediverse can tell me what it is. #AskFedi

@nev Within recent months I've encountered one every so often at home. I have no idea where they came from. I keep setting them outside when I find them.

@liesvanrompaey Even beyond stereotypical pink coloration, I've had times where I looked at athletic shoes sections in stores and noticed that the only real differences between men's and women's sneakers is that women's sneakers are generally lighter colors while men's sneakers use more black.
