Show Notes

wall-flower-I        Petey seems to think we all need to get out and about to see cool plants and animals. Okay.

I still love road trips that are stop and go for roadside flora and fauna.  I’m sure it drove our children crazy when the whole family was trying to get somewhere. On the other hand I have  many neat photos of our daughters’ hands holding interesting plants and animals.

Western Wall Flower (Erysimum capitatum) is a beautiful wild flower in the mustard family. I rarely see it offered in nurseries, so I guess you’ll need to get out and about.
