Have been having that strong gathering feeling that comes with fall, and got to "feed the need" a bit today, while we were out and about. It's not quite time to start collecting nuts, but it will be soon.
Today, collected:
Lilac, from house in town
From Mom's:
Amaranthus, Intense Purple
Various Lilies/Iris
Buckeyes
Peonies (white, from divisions from our house)
Hibiscus, white
Hedgeapple
Ash(?)
Cone from a beautiful spruce in town with draping branches
From herb bed:
Motherwort? (need to check identity)
Oregano
Hyssop
Yarrow
Lemon balm
St. John's wort (check identity)
Also from home:
Chicory
Red clover (check to identify; may be a runner?)
Also bought a table (at the house with the beautiful spruces) with lovely trays designed to hold typeset. I'm thinking they could be used somehow in my seed sorting/drying. If not, there are a million other uses for them, I'm sure.
All in all, a nice day...but I still have my mental sights on that mossycup oak by the bridge outside of town...
