Plant of the Day

Wednesday 17 June 2026

The flowers of Amsonia 'Ernst Pagels' (bluestar) provide summer interest but just as impressive are the stunning autumn foliage colours with yellow to deep purple. This clump-forming perennial is probably a hybrid of Amsonia hubrechtii and Amsonia ciliata. It needs fertile, moist but well-drained soil in full sun.

Name: Mistmaster

Series: Cucumber Qiest

Gender: Male

Status: Alive

Family: The Disaster Masters (Allies)

Flower Motif: Storm Cloud Amsonia (Amsonia tabernaemontana)

Flower Meaning: Deceit

Weapon of Choice: Staff

Hero Form Appearance: A combination of a cloud god’s storm robes and YuYuYu’s Hero Form Outifts. The undersuit of the outfit is a jet black, representing storm clouds- and while the main outfit is a light blue as the skies when the storm clears, it becomes a deep, dark indigo when you reach the lower half of the sleeves, the lower half of the pants, and the tailcoat. Accent colors include yellow (Lightning), gold, silver, purple, black, white, and gray. The boots, gloves, and belt all have patterns of amsonia flowers on them, and the only other accessory is a chain of amsonia flowers in Mistmaster’s hair. The flower’s petal shape can be seen in the tailcoat and collar.

Amsonia Tabernaemontana

Rich, vibrant colors of fall.    Cool weather intensifiying the colors and starting the season off.   

A challenging year for sure, but, thankfully, there are silver linings now and then.
