Today’s nonhuman on offer is: of botanical persuasion~!
Well look at the time. The big hand says it’s February, the most romantic time of year. And what’s more romantic than plants? Nothing, that’s what!
In lieu of bombarding you all with sexy botany facts, please enjoy our next release instead:
This is a short, delicate BL oneshot that’s quite pretty. It’s about budding affection, a mysterious young man we meet in a greenhouse, and the give-and-take of a relationship.
I lied. Here’s a plant fact because I just can’t help myself:
A “rhizome” is an underground root-like system that can generate new plant shoots. Ginger root and turmeric root, for example, are actually rhizomes. Tubers (like potatoes) are rhizome offshoots that store starches and other sources of energy that allow the plant to either overwinter, or produce new growth.
Another fun fact about rhizomes is that they ALWAYS grow horizontally, never downward!
This term shows up in the manga so: the more you know~~~
