Native seeds and plants

While I'm waiting for my children to cooperate for some late Halloween costume pictures, I thought I would show you some pictures from Jacie Jensen's Thorn Creek Native Seed Farm site. Jacie and her husband live in Genesee, ID, which is where I grew up. This beautiful website is full of pictures from that area and wonderful pictures of all the native plants.
A sampling of the seeds...

There is a database that lists the native plants and their descriptions with gorgeous photos...

I remember picking these as a little girl....

... they do not last long as a cut flower... about 10 minutes.
So if you have some time, take a look and learn about native plants and all the things Jacie and Wayne do.
