ABUNDANT SPRING 45

A stroll around town…..

Wild blueberries near Carter Park. There are LOTS of them!
I have seen lots of Sassafras seedlings around….this was near Carter Park.
This may be Turkey Tail Fungus or, possibly, Stereum or Fomes applanatus, “White Butt Rot.” I’m not sure….I have looked it up in a field guide and online, but, I’m still not sure. Anyway, I thought it was interesting looking!
I saw this gorgeous lilac along Center Street. It might be “Miss Kim,” I’m not sure, but it sure is beautiful!
This Scotch Broom is another Center Street “stunner!”
Lauren T. sent this picture. She says, “Not mine, but noteworthy. … .this Baptisia is in Fred’s former front yard…never seen one as fat and happy!”

ABUNDANT SPRING 42

Miriam G. has sent us these beauties! Hear what she has to say.

“I saw this coral honeysuckle (Lonicera sempervirens) growing in the wild.”
“The sweet shrub (Calycanthus floridus) is especially full of blooms this year.”
“The solid green native Solomon’s Seal (Polygonatum biflorum) isn’t as eye-catching as the variegated Asian species, but has its own quiet beauty.”
