Blue Velvet

A late-blooming cultivar that grows to 3'-4' tall and wide. It has unusual greyish green, velvety leaves and interesting shredding bark. The soft and oval fruit is flavorful, with high amounts of ascorbic acid and bioactive flavonoides. The flavor is somewhat like a cross between blueberry and blackberry. Use late-bloomers Blue Pacific or Blue Moon as pollinizers.Late-blooming varieties are especially well-suited for areas that experience variable spring weather. Small, creamy yellow, funnel-shaped flowers appear in February or March and are a valuable source of early nectar for pollinators. New to America, but widely grown in Russia, China and Northern Japan where it is called Haskap. Plants prefer sun (in cool locations), or morning sun (in warmer regions), and well-drained soil. Select two different varieties for pollination. USDA Zones 2-8.

Following the critical and commercial failure of Dune, Lynch was ready to return to a more personal story, in the form of Blue Velvet. Blue Velvet as a formal project dated back to around the time of the completion of the Elephant Man, though Lynch started having ideas for it as far back as the 70's. "I started getting these ideas for it in 1973, but they were just fragments of interesting things. Some fell away, others stayed and began to join up."1 "The first two or three ideas were a neighborhood, kind of green lawns with shadows like, lit at night from a light bulb and red lips and the color blue. The song Blue Velvet, Bobby Vinton's version, influenced it a lot."2 Jack Nance remembered Lynch talking about Blue Velvet during the editing of Eraserhead: "He showed me this little drawing he'd done...of this rustic roadhouse or saloon, out in the countryside. It was just by the side of the road with this big neon sign on top of the place that said: 'Blue Velvet.' He showed it to me and said: 'How do you like it, Jack?' I said: 'It's beautiful.' He said: 'We're going to do that someday.' I said: 'Do what?' And he said: 'We're going to do Blue Velvet someday. It's a movie.'"3

The Blue Velvet Shrimp is bred from the Red Cherry Shrimp. Shrimp tend to lose their color during the stress of shipping and because they have not been exposed to light while they are in the shipping box. The Blue Velvet Shrimp can vary in color, from a dark to light blue. Please allow 3 or more days after arrival of the shrimp to color back up to return to their normal color. They have been known to breed quickly and make a great clean-up crew for your tank. N. davidi shrimp are primarily biofilm eaters. The male is smaller and usually less colorful than the female. These shrimp are imported from Taiwan.

Exceptionally hardy, Lonicera caerulea 'Blue Velvet' (Honeyberry) is a deciduous shrub with attractive, gray-green, velvety leaves and small, funnel-shaped, slightly fragrant, white flowers in early spring. The blossoms give way to teardrop-shaped, dark blue berries which ripen in late spring or early summer. Similar to blueberries in taste and looks, they may be eaten directly off the bush or harvested for use in jams, pies or juices. Ideally honeyberries should be planted in pairs or groups, as this will increase the rate of pollination and fruit production. Hand pollination is a good alternative since there is little pollinating insect activity in early spring: lightly brush over the flowers with a small, soft paint brush.

The answer was yes, yes it could. Neff and Olson created Blue Velvet from 100% blue corn using a blend of two very distinct varieties: the aforementioned landlace (a.k.a. a plant grown in its original region with a nearly identical genetic makeup to its wild ancestor) blue strain from Oaxaca, Mexico, and an organic strain of indigo developed in Kentucky. After being cooked and fermented, the bourbon was carefully distilled in small batches before being stored in charred new oak barrels for twelve to eighteen months.

The painting is executed on a fine, light weight, plain-weave fabric support that has been lined. The original tacking margins have been removed and the stretcher is not original. An off-white ground layer was applied overall. The major outlines of the flowers were drawn probably in graphite. The white blossoms were painted first, primarily wet-into-wet, with little glazing. The leaves and stem were painted next; first the primary modeling was blended wet-into-wet, building paint from dark to light. The deepest shadows were then painted in heavy transparent glazes. The background was painted last, directly on top of the ground in a series of glazes. Highlights were added on top of the middle tones created in the initial stages of painting the velvet; these were glazed and reduced in tone as the painting process progressed. The paint layer is generally in very good condition, with a fine crackle throughout, a few widely scattered small losses, and a small amount of abrasion in the shadows of the closed magnolia bud. There is a small tear in the upper left corner that has been repaired. The thin, matte varnish covers an unevenly removed older varnish layer.

I love red velvet. It's my fav cake to eat! And I have no qualms about food colouring so always wondered if this velvet fantasy could expand into something else. Glad you tried it in blue! ? I so love this.

where did you find liquid blue food coloring in 1oz bottles?..i checked at my kroger and they only had red, yellow, and green..i bought some royal blue wilton gel food coloring today but i'm unsure if this is an acceptable substitute for the liquid..please help!..i want to make this cake for my friend's birthday on sunday because she is a huge kentucky wildcat fan..nothing better than a blue cake for a uk fan! ?

I posted these on my blog today with a link to your site. Thanks for the great recipe! I made one little change and that was to add a tiny bit of water to the paste of cocoa powder and food coloring gel. I'm so glad you gave instructions for the gel, because I couldn't find the liquid in blue for some reason. 041b061a72
