AMAZING PLANT FACTS

Clerodendrum Trichotomum is finally doing its thing!!!!  See the berries forming?  Soon they will turn a very deep blue!  It is one of the rare natural blue dyes on the planet!  I have been reading up on how to dye with it so you will see a follow-up post eventually!

This plant is tall--15+' right now!  
Here is another plant that shows up in November,
 it is the Indian Pipe or Ghost Pipe.  It looks like a mushroom or fungi but it is a plant that just lacks chlorophyl!   The little bell shape at the end is the flower and has a very pleasing aroma.
