Day 166 - 170: Letters I - L, and Abe Lincoln

Day 166, Letter I:

While I was looking up what kind of plants start with the letter "I", I came across this one, ipomoea. It is basically the plant that is better known as morning glory. I know morning glory well. Although, I have to admit that it is pretty, I don't know that I can say I am fond of it. I have done battled with it while gardening. I spent a whole morning last summer un-twining it from a grapevine that was being choked by it. The stuff is relentless. So, here is a Letter I, being overtaken by ipomoea.

I for ipomoea (also known as morning glory)

Day 167, Letter J:

J for Joshua Tree. Hint: the "J" is upside-down.

Day 168, Abraham Lincoln's birthday (Feb. 12):

abe. famous for his hat and beard. and his ideas of equality.

Day 169, Letter K:

K for kale! flat-leaf and curly-leaf.

Day 170, Letter L:

L for lavender.
