And until yesterday I didn't know what to look for <br /><br />vanilla- not sure if there is an Indiana population- do you have wild lupine?<br /><br />John- I don't think I know that one- but there are lots more I don't know than ones I do<br /><br />Ann- maybe I can ask more questions tomorrow.<br /><br />Ivy- I was sure hoping that some of my too-quickly taken shots would turn out- got lucky!<br /><br />Lin- they all need certain plants<br /><br />Ratty- I think they are very hard to ID in a hurry unless they are one of the big spectacular ones- you really have to know exactly what to look for.
