Stapeliads are known for their multi-seasonal floriferous displays of furry star-shaped sex organs that smell like death, a come-hither for flesh eating vermin and worshippers of Thanatos. Each year I look forward to the first maggot infested flush of Stapelia grandiflora, nursing larva babies on the rank perfume of her satanic festering wounds.

Some believe William Burroughs was describing the infamous perfume of Amorphophallus titanum–the largest unbranched flower in the world–when he wrote:
"Lord of Abominations, whose face is a mass of entrails, whose breath is the stench of dung and the perfume of death, Dark Angel of all that is excreted and sours, Lord of Decay, Lord of the Future, who rides on a whispering south wind."

A special Garden Gi hand dyed by the great Misa Chhan. The Gingham Gi is naturally dyed with Walnut and hand painted with mordants (metallic salts such as alum or iron used to bond the dye to the fiber). Mordants are essential for the lightfastness and wash fastness for most natural dyes. The alum brightens the dye and the iron darkens it. After the mordant is applied, the gi is dyed in a Walnut bath which reacts with the different mordants and untreated background, resulting in three different shades of brown in one dye bath
*please note each Gi will be unique in tone, pattern, etc. Color may change with use, age and water. If you must, hand wash cold, line dry out of direct sun.

*This is for a pot only. No plants, soil, or seeds included.
Rough Pot Measurements:
Original: 5" x 7"
Small: 3.5 x 4.5"
These are made to order by hand, so color and shape will vary.

Cryptobiotic soil crusts form when communities of microscopic algae, fungi, lichens, and mosses, grow together in desert soils—gluing soil particles together to form a living symbiotic matrix. These cryptic lifeforms—vital to the health of arid ecosystems, are also highly vulnerable to human disturbance.
For decades, Jayne Belnap and the amazing folks at the National Parks Service (NPS) have acted as human advocates for these remarkable and unassuming lifeforms. Today we feel honored to help them boost that signal with a re-release of their original “Don’t Bust the Crust” conservation campaign.
15% of profits will be donated to the Canyonlands Natural History Association to support their amazing work supporting public lands and education. Thanks to Marinna Wagner for her work on this project.

- A game with no rules that promotes an embodied approach to being a citizen of a dying world.
- An aleatoric monkey wrench for shuffling-in to the routines of bipedal domesticated animals.
- Low-dose victimless prank prescriptions that, in small ways, help to make the world a better place.
- A game that takes a year to play, 52 cards, 1 for each week.
