RE: Toolik Field Station, Alaska 2017. Part 3: ColorChallenge ThursdayGreen

@gardenlady Fun fact for people interested in gardening.. because Alaska gets the longest duration of sunlight/day in the USA summer, many plants will grow to be much much larger. For example, there are huge farms entirely dedicated to peonies. They are sustainable businesses, despite inactivity in the winter, because the peonies are in bloom for a larger portion of the summer than in other parts of the country and are so nice and big. They get shipped all over the country.

Sort:  

that is so cool! I notice that plants can be larger even in Maine, so that would be awesome to check out the flora in Alaska. And fruit! I bet they grow huuuge watermelon and canteloupe!!
