this is so magical, it looks like little plants begin to grow and thrive at the bottom

this is a very common thing for mosses!! they’ve made themselves so resistant to water loss that they can squeeze out all intercellular water in the dry season, hang out like that for months or however long it takes for water to come back to their environment, and then ‘wake up’ when they can replenish their cells and resume photosynthesis!! a fun thing to try is to dry out a moss and then drip water on it and watch it come back to life!!

DRYP – an app that keeps your plants alive and happy

Hi Tumblr!

I know I’ve been gone for a while.

In part it’s because I’ve been working on an app!

I keep a lot of plants. I think everyone should!

– They clean your air
– They give you something to name
– They give you something to take care of
– They teach you about care, needs, and resources
– They make you look like you’re good at decorating

Here are some of mine:

But some people, because they’re overwhelmed or simply can’t figure out how to start, think that plants are out of their reach.

DRYP is for newcomers and experts.

It reminds you when to water

And it helps you fix what’s broken

If you think the world would be better with this app in it, please consider contributing to the Kickstarter!

I’ve tried to make it worth your while:

Again here’s the link to contribute:
