Another springtime finds me here at the labs. Another springtime finds me slipping out of my office to dawdle along the paths and take pictures of wildflowers. Here are a few woodland/edge species common in this area.
Being blue, the little iris is my favorite. I used to want to grow these in my garden in upstate New York. I was disproportionately thrilled to discover them growing wild here in the South last spring.
Botanizing in the hedges is way too much fun. Must get back to work! Lab meeting to attend and protein assays to do.
