How's the gahden doin?
I've got two now! I 've been preparing a second patch for next year tilling and composting, and whatnot for about a week now...went out today to mix in more good stuff into it only find the Honey do mellon guts I mixed in have sprouted into about fifty lil plants! apparently I should have relocated my pool to the side of my yard where my garden is now and put my garden there (this spring would have been the perfect time to do it as I needed a new liner anyway)...the soil next to my pool is soooooo much nicer (a hell of a lot fewer rocks and softer) and much more fertile:doh!: Oh well. -

never before last walkabout had i specifically sought the camas seed, and so one revelation for me rooting around that field was that the camas pods & seeds make a most unusual and remarkable sound when disturbed. i may have heard it before in the field but never knew the cause, and would not have associated the sound with camas even this time save it was camas seed i sought & it was camas seed i found. the sound is bright, high pitched, almost like a quick & short whistle or a little...

took a while to id this as it's not in my books and no one lists 'peach' as a flower color. 
even when i found it in the state database, peach petals aren't mentioned or the blue anthers, but the 5 petals narrowed it as well as the slender leaves. photos helped a lot as they showed the reddish stems which no source mentioned in the text. 
once i id'd it, i checked my county listing of vascular plants found and this one is not there. 
this is the plant i mentioned earlier...

the beautimous little flower you see, for now, aside this post is a plant native to my area, namely Fringecup - Tellima grandiflora. that it is fringed is obvious, but less so 'grandiflora', as it is a rather not grand but small flower. so this one i collected several years ago and grew in a pot, then put it in the yard in a shady corner last year. it's thriving & i spent the last couple days harvesting the ever-so tiny seeds now matured. of the maybe 40 seeds i got i have planted a few...
