My oyster plant is thriving. It's about to bloom a flower for us to enjoy. 😉🙃😊🤩💜

"It is celebrated in herbal medicine for its potential to relieve respiratory issues like coughs, sore throats, and bronchitis, as well as acting as an anti-inflammatory and antioxidant agent."

"Moses-in-the-cradle (Tradescantia spathacea) is a popular ornamental plant known for its sword-shaped, green-and-purple leaves and small white flowers nestled in boat-shaped bracts, resembling a cradle. Also called oyster plant or boatlily, it's native to Central America and thrives in bright, indirect light, well-draining soil, and warm temperatures, but can be invasive in some regions and is toxic to pets and children, causing skin irritation."

🍀 Dwarf Germander is now appearing at various locations around the Alcove this Spring.

"Teucrium cubense, or small coastal germander, is a perennial herb in the mint family, native to the Americas, known for its lobed leaves and small white or blue-tinged flowers with purple speckles. It thrives in full sun and dry, sandy soils, growing up to two feet tall and attracting pollinators like butterflies. This drought-tolerant plant is found in coastal areas, arroyos, and grasslands, and is valued for its low water needs and ability to provide nectar."

Totally digging the newest load of gravel put down on the Alcove Road. It's almost like solid concrete after the rain. I'm looking forward to covering the entire quarter mile driveway plus all the parking areas with it. It's definitely pricey compared to the larger rock we had been using the last two decades = totally worth it.

☮️❤️☯️ I have an easy peaceful feeling today. All of my current obligations have been fulfilled. Today is supposed to be a rest day. I'll start back in on Alcove accounting later in the week. I've already begun packing for a camping trip at the end of May. I need to reseal my DAC truck tent. It's served me well for over ten years now. ⛺️🚐🏕

SAVE the DATES! 🗓
➡️ 🔥 Our next Alcove event will be our annual Memorial Day Burn Weekend. We usually work on the land while burning brush piles then enjoy a PotLuck Feast afterwards on Saturday night. I'll get the event posted soon. May 22-25, 2026
~Alchemy♡

➡️ 🌈 We also have a larger event planned for the 4th of July weekend: Hippie Fest at Alchemy's Alcove. There will be a $10 suggested donation per person. Children 12 & younger are Free to enter with a parent or legal guardian. NO Vendors Fees! Workshops are being planned ... start saving your white cotton shirts for tie-dying. Watch for more details. I'm Excited! July 3-5, 2026.
