My journey in Traditional Skills began in 2020 on my trip to Costa Rica. The environment of Costa Rica along with Plant Medicines and my willpower, enhanced my desired relationship to the "basics". In 2020, I also started my first Stone Age Skill Internship for 1.5 months. Later that year, I began another 1.5 year Internship that involved Hunter-Gatherer Skills along with Homesteading Skills; Upon that Internship I've left with several skill-sets (Hide-Tanning, Friction Fires, Cordage, Felting, foraging, and etc) and relationships. My first Plant Mentor and successful author, Thomas J. Elpel left me with a good foundation to start my plant journey and I wanted to take it a step further with studying Ethnobotany in this new (to me) academic environment with the dream to make my path of preservation be somehow professionally recognized.
The path is ever-so evolving.
Awesome! Great you were able to find an ericaceous plant with porate anther dehiscence! These are awesome images of the features. The Rosa picture for diadelphous stamens does not fit though. The stamens in roses are not in two different groups, with some of them fused and others distinct. Most commonly diadelphous stamens are found in the Fabaceae, the legume family, and then in the Papillionoideae subfamily. So peas, beans, peanuts, etc. have diadelphous stamens (see below from http://www.colinherb.com/Leguminosae/Hedysarum/Alpinum/Hedysarum_alpinum_1304_063.htm).
