La xia (Salvia hispanica) és una de les moltes espècies que s'han introduït al nostre país arrel del seu us alimentari (en aquest cas les llavors són emprades en productes de fleca i altres aliments). Per això no ens ha d'estranyar que sobretot la localitzem als sorrals dels rius, aigües avall de les depuradores, on arriben les granes a través de les aigües residuals.

@plants Eight weeks ago I was wondering if I would ever see flowers on chia plants in my small garden. At that time there was 13h 35m between sunrise and sunset. Today we have just 9h 33m, and even if we add the two twilight zones the days are short. And isn't that a bud on a chia plant? 😻

The temperatures are less than 11°C these days, so I doubt that the plants will produce viable seeds, but what a delight if I can finaly see its flowers in vivo.

Will they every bloom, I wonder. Junior Woodchucks' Guidebook says that Salvia hispanica is a “short-day flowering plant”, which will not happen here in Denmark until 3+ weeks from now, and meanwhile the temperatures are dropping. The plants are over 1 m tall at this point, so I'd rather not take the pot inside.

Anyway, a couple of bush crickets have been enjoying the forest for a good while now, so that's a reward in itself.
