Deptford Pink
  Deptford Pink August 22, 2010
The plant was given its English name by the 17th century herbalist Thomas Johnson in a celebrated case of mistaken identity. In fact, what Johnson found and described in 1633 was probably maiden pink Dianthus deltoides. As the first name given to a plant is generally the one botanists stick to, the East End of London is 'famous' for a species that has not grown there in historical times, and possibly not at all. The Oxford English Dictionary gives a reference from 1597 to "A Wilde creeping Deptford Pink

Avocado
  Avocado July 31, 2010

Pinyon Pine
  Pinyon Pine July 19, 2010
The pinyon pine nut (seed) species will take 18 months to complete its maturity, however, in order to reach full maturity the environmental conditions must be favorable for the tree and its fruit. Development begins in early spring with pollinization. A tiny cone (small marble size) will form from mid spring to the end of summer in which the premature cone will then become and remain dormant (cessation of growth) until the following spring. The cone will then commence growth until it reaches mat Pinyon Pine
