Ericaceae is a diverse family including sourwood, blueberries, mountain laurel and many others. Pipsissewa is a plant I learned to recognize as a child. My grandmother would point it out to me as we walked through the woods. It makes me smile as I think of my grandmother when I see it now.Judithhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12040577651980084345noreply@blogger.com
