Petey gets so excited about the Apache Pine. What’s up with that?
Pinus englemannii is it’s northern most range in southeastern Arizona. Though at first glance it appears to be a Ponderosa Pine, certainly the very long needles give it away. It’s one of my favorite pines to grow and I take them to the farmers markets in Cochise County to sell. I suspect they will make me rich. It could happen.
Petey talks about Irises and very good dog. Makes sense, sorta. Irises are found around the world. I’ve seen them atop our sky islands...
The green dodo, Dodoneaea viscosa…I don’t think that the variety angustifolia still applies to our native dodo as botanists Benson and Darrow had it…anyway,...
Hummingbird trumpet has had quite a few botanical names and I’m still not sure that I got the current botanical right in this episode....
