mesquitey245-yahooPetey reveals the results of eating a little too much ground flax seed. Maybe a little too much information, Petey.

I just love the specific epithet usitatissimum. It’s worth learning just so you can slip in into a conversation. “Well it was a good day and usitatissimum too.” Okay, maybe not. But do try to find the wildflower blue flax, Linum lewisii,  in the wild and like I said, the seed and plants are readily available in fun nurseries. So fill up your habitat with blue flax. Just do it.
