OK, I’ll admit it. I am a flat-lander, a city boy, trying to learn all this stuff about growing things. One of the biggest things I don’t know is what the name is of nearly anything that grows. OK, I’ve learned a few things, but I still have a lot to learn. So that’s that this post is about; admitting that I don’t much is the first step to learning.  Figuring that there will be a whole lot more posts like this to follow, I’ll just go ahead and start numbering them.

A big bush with pink flowers
