I don’t remember exactly what this plant is. I remember putting it in I know it’s a native but if anyone could give me some advice that would be great thanks for looking. Oh by the way we had two stalks that are over 10 feet tall.

These are our echinacea or purple cone flour that have gone to seed. We will collect some of these seeds and put them in a raise bed to create new plants, but mostly we have a method we use where we don’t have to collect a seed and we are able to get plants easily from start where they naturally fall on the ground and we make it. It’s really easy to pull a pot and do what we want to get them or make a video to share that later.

These are our copper, iris, and blue iris, which are also native to Missouri. They like to grow in an area that stays kind of moist so we have a spot by the driveway that stays moist most of the year. We do water it sometimes when it gets really dry but most of the time it just goes on its own. These plants have been thriving now for several years And they go to seed. We’ve collected the seed but never planted it this year. We’re gonna try to get them planted and see how they do. Obviously these plants have done very well as they started out with just two plants.

These persimmon trees are just loaded with fruit. All this fruit will turn orange start to wrinkle and then have a great flavor to it. Most won’t get picked and they’ll drop off on the ground and will disappear within a few days from wildlife coming up and eating from under the trees.

These are our Fringe trees. We have two of them. The great trees they get a white real frilly bloom in the spring, which makes everybody happy and then they get these berries on them in the fall.
