Plant Trivia Pat inspired
Plant trivia: 'Pink' originally refered to the *notching* found on the flower petals, and only later came to mean the *color* that is typical of most pinks. (The older meaning of the word continues in use for the special type of scissors known as "pinking shears.") -- Pat in Plymouth MI -- Bill S. Jersey USA zone 5 shade garden What use one more wake up call? |
