Activated abilities contain a colon. They're generally written "[Cost]: [Effect]." Some keyword abilities are activated abilities and will have colons in their reminder text. Triggered abilities (starting with "when," "whenever," or "at") are unaffected by the cost reduction ability of Blossoming Tortoise.

Blossoming Tortoise's second ability affects only abilities of lands you control on the battlefield. The costs of activated abilities of land cards that work in other zones (such as cycling) won't be reduced.
