That's part of my backyard, and you can see my row of 18 highbush blueberries.
The storm was yesturday. It didn't hit until suppertime so I was able to dig up my bearded irises to divide. Today I planted the extra 12 rhizomes in a new bed. I love free plants--from your own plants or from other people dividing up theirs.
Look what I dug up in the process:

[/caption]I was really exicted to find some Indian Pipe! I've been on the look out for it since seeing it in one of my wildflower books. And guess what, I found it in my backyard along the edge of the woods. Looks like fungi doesn't it! I'll have to check this spot early next year and see if I see the blooms (they're over now).
