A couple of the big Autumn Olive bushes are ``native'' in the sense
of having gotten there as weeds ; and a couple are planted from
seedlings. They're all say 15' across and tall, so it's not as if
they're fragile or hadn't seen 20 below winters.

Knew a lady years ago (I say knew -- can't even remember her name right
now. That's occurring more and more often.) who called those "natives"
volunteers. Pits transported by coons, maybe?
