summers coming

        You may have noticed while walking outside of your house or driving around town, that spring is coming to a end even though we are getting major rain still. Peoples lawns are covered in them yellow spots. Well if you didnt notice those are Dandelion. "Dandelion" comes from the french, it means mane of the lion. Dandelion is actually in the family of weeds and they where not orginally here. They where brought over to the U.S. and quickly spread throughout the states. Dandelions spread very quickly because the wind blows them white seeds on top of them around. Remember as a kid you would blow them white flowers, well you were actually making you lawn worse.

      So if you are looking to get rid of those annoying dandelions you have, well you cant completely get rid of them because they spread so fast and can live in rough soil and spread in any terain. If you are looking to treat your lawn this spring for summer you might wanna get it treated fast before your entire lawn is covered in those little yellow spots.

Plant 1

Black chokeberry

It is a dark red and blackish berry. With green leaves. The berries can be found in the bushes on the ground, usually located by rivers. It is a diciduous plant. It is not a a eatable plant when raw . Anamals such as squirrels eat them but then they get sick. They are distinguished by there purple stems and small size.

My son ate a couple of them and then got a really bad stomach ache. The ache lasted for about a day but he ended up throwing it up. My wife also ate a couple but she used to them so it just made her mouth turn purple.
