E.pallida is the spp.

Yea, I know, that's the white one I grew.

Actually, mine was really sucking for the past few years, then I moved it into a
dirt dry, horribly infertile spot and it did great. It's interesting how
certain plants really do thrive on neglect. I'm slowly learning how to neglect!
I will have to say that in all the years I've been gardening, this year was my
best, or should I say, most appreciated by me. I always see flaws. This year,
I was truly happy. Of course tomorrow I will go out and move things around and
I have about 15 shrubs and three trees to plant. I have no idea where I'm going
to put a burr oak, but I got a 10 gallon tree, which was at least 12 feet tall
for 16 dollars at Walmart. THAT, I could not pass on.
