    Love your passion for nature and how you go into such great description of the plant's life cycle. Truly we have an awesome and mighty creator who brings forth all life and instills it in a tiny seed that can bring forth a great tree. He created it and said, "It was good." He made all things for our use and we can praise Him for that.

    Today while exploring our property I found a young 3" high rowan. In my neck of the woods, Amqui Quebec, I identified it as an American Mountain Ash. It has some thorns and the bright orange berries seem to have hairy thorns on them as well at some point in their growing stage as not all the berries had them. I'm going to wait until a couple of hard frosts which are very soon to try them. That's if the moose, gray and blue jays don't get them first :)
