Of
course, this language blog must include a definition of plant as “a living
organism of the kind exemplified by trees, shrubs, herbs, grasses, ferns, and
mosses, typically growing in a permanent site, absorbing water and inorganic
substances through its roots, and synthesizing nutrients in its leaves by
photosynthesis using the green pigment chlorophyll.” – Google
(Whew!
Couldn’t have said it better myself.)
I
have grown to love the plants, and have bought several since April, for Kay and me
to enjoy on our frontier property.
A
few fast photos I took at the nursery (plus one at home) will suffice.
