1. Another tree for which our road was named. They grow wild around here- Can you name the species?
2. We have a number of species of this tree on the property.. but I can't tell you which is which
3.A garden treasure..
4. This tree, again named for our road.. is named for the brilliant color ..
5. One wild and crazy plant.. will grow about anywhere on anything.. really a nuisance.
6. Sweet little flower that blooms among the first in the spring..
7. Named for a delicious vegetable.. I wouldn't try this one..the smell would make me sick!
8. My dad was good at picking these all summer long and making necklaces out of them.
9..I think this is a beautiful tree.. but watch out.. it's poisonous!
10. I don't like to run in the grass and step on one of these...OOUCH!! The pretty little flower on top will become brown and in the winter if you walk by, it will stick to your coat or pants.
11.Pure as driven snow.. another one named for where we live.
12. I remember asking my mother what that funny plant was that was crawling up a lot of the trees.. it got so scarlet in the fall.. she said "why it's a............"
13. This one is just 'itching' to get on your skin..
14. In the spring, these plants cover the floor of the woods.. we called them 'umbrellas' when I was a child..
15. This one puts forth a fruit that is most delicious..
16.This plant makes little fish shaped seed pods that when you open them, the feathers all fly
17. There is a row of these trees here.. the deer love them. They eat the fruit and we don't mind.
18. The jelly from this fruit is awesome! Wish we had more of the plants.
19. Big and stately, not an oak.. but a huge tree growing by our house. Leaves feel kind of rough on the back side...
