I went to Jim's on Saturday and got a few nice plants from his property. They're a little wind burned from the long ride in the pickup, but they seem to be hanging in there. I gave them alpaca poop and plenty of water.
Here's the list:
Highbush blueberry Vaccinium corymbassum
Lowbush blueberry
Black Eye Susan Rudbeckia sp.
Fringe Tree Cheanothas virginica
Mountain laurel Kalmia latifolia
Wild Iris Iris virginica
On another subject, the reason there are no pictures in this post is that my camera went missing at work. The last time I remember seeing it was on Friday. It's a Panasonic Lumix waterproof wonder and I miss it badly. I'm pretty sure it was either on my desk in my office or in our lab on a lab bench. I don't set it down any where else at work. Pretty sad. I don't know if I just had a severe brain fart of if it walked. I did report that it's missing and I gave them the serial number. I also discovered that other items have gone missing on campus lately. I'm still holding on to the possibility that I just did something really stupid with the camera but this hope fades with each passing day...
Plant native plants for the planet!

Major bummer about the camera. Makes you wonder and try to guess who might have stolen it, huh?
Time to start thinking about windsurfing (for you. for me it's time to start thinking about planting bayberry and inkberry. Just as soon as the last frost is done.)
