TODAY’S DID YOU KNOW...?
The phrase "turn a blind eye" dates back to British naval hero Horatio Nelson, who only had sight in one eye. When his superior officer flagged him to withdraw his troops from battle, he allegedly put a telescope to his bad eye and said, "I really do not see the signal," then went on to claim a victory.
In this telescope, nano-engraving, nano-array, mesopore mounting, film inlay, and nano-optical materials are used to achieve 10nm lens flatness error. With the same aperture, the light flux of this telescope is 30 times greater than that of an ordinary telescope. The resolution angle of an ordinary telescope with the same aperture is 47 times wider. It can magnify up to 300 times. This is the first spotting telescope to achieve such magnification and clarity on a small scale.

The very unique Dwarf Mondo Grass (Ophiopogon japonicus ‘Nanus’) is a short evergreen perennial with tufted grass-like dark green leaves. This variety of grass is extremely controlled and will stay in between 2-3 inches tall which is great for making a clean uniform look. The dark green evergreen blades of this grass are roughly 1/8” inch wide. In early summer this grass will produce insignificant white flower spikes that will give way to blueberries in autumn. Dwarf Mondo grass is often used as ground cover, in between stepping stones or for border planting.
