From Earth’s bewildering microbiology to her hypothesized extremophilic macrocosmic abiogenesis, looking through our most powerful microscope or telescope respectively, is the fluid interconnectedness of life as far as the eye can see. In our ongoing tribute to poly-extremophilic life, we made this Panspermia shirt in honor of our alien microbe ancestors.

Lichens are relationships incarnate. The word “symbiosis” was coined to describe this inter-kingdom collaboration between mycobiont, photobiont, and their environments. Lichens challenge the idea that life reduces to a competition for resources among the fittest. This shirt is our homage to these little teachers. An outward expression of an inner commitment to be a little more licheny.

Securely holds three types of incense, lid doubles as a burner and tray.

Mammillaria plumosa grows on limestone cliffs in sparse xerophytic shrubland, there is continuing decline due to ongoing collection, but the number of locations probably exceeds ten and the population is not likely to be severely fragmented. The species is illegally collected for the ornamental trade. The local community in the area also collects plants from the wild and sells them at local markets at Christmas time, as they are used to decorate nativity scenes.

Statistically, no matter how many seeds a plant makes, it will only ever germinate one that survives long enough to reproduce. This is true of every stable plant population, which means that removing even just one from the wild, contributes to the permanent decline of that species.
Habitats are under enormous pressure. Please keep wild plants wild. Grow from seed.

Related to the yam, Dioscorea elephantipes is the world’s most special potato. Some extremely old plants in habitat have been recorded reaching up to 7 feet in diameter. Although most Dioscorea in cultivation are much smaller, they are no less impressive—shooting off a vine that grows faster than you can water it. Because this species was almost harvested to extinction in the 1950s, and due to the fact that it grows very slowly, a specimen this large is a serious statement piece for collectors in-the-know.
A perfect windowsill plant.
These are currently growing in 3.5 inch pots.
