June

 May - June



My *tenacious bandana-for-scale Milkweed is now over 18" tall and I'm thinking of trying to relocate it. My guess is the rhizome is running along the crack in the cement. Maybe I'll pull up the seal in hopes of getting the root out. I'd leave it be if it wasn't sort of in the way. Also, it would be great if it could start a new patch somewhere else. Relocating in-the-way plants has shown promise so far.
*Not sure that's the word I want.

Lucky shot of the day.  (But I was lying in wait for him to take the leap so I guess it wasn't all luck.)

 Scans of Slides, Hawaii 
Back to April 2026
The titles are copied from the slides and unconfirmed.
The slides say "1999" but I have my doubts, suspect earlier.

I think this picture makes the whole project worthwhile.
