teosinte and hopi blue maize
while i was in the garden i noticed that one of the hopi blue plants and one of the northern tepehuan teosinte plants both shared the same peculiar ( in my experience ) coloration...they are akin to one another and they are both annuals so i am left wondering if it is genetic or if it is environmental...they are located near to one another in the bed...but none of the other plants share this trait...more research i see with some more observation thrown in...if it is a genetic trait i wonder if there's folk taxonomy for it...questions questions.
an ex- industrial worker ( the continued automation of jobs, condensing of ownership, plant closings, trade wars, and degradation of living standards here has rendered me a former industrial worker...now just part-time lumpen proletariat) and university student (everyone needs a hobby...my hobbies have evolved and, to keep things straight, i have left my formal student career behind for reasons that are too detailed to delve into here...continuing to be a student of life however and not adverse to learning...stasis is death ) sliding down the back side of middle age...a social loner with collectivist leanings...explain that.
