I saw a crazy amount of bugs in New Orleans (likely place for them to be) including those fuzzy caterpillars but also the new to me (and invasive) apple snails which are cartoonishly exciting to see and lay bright pink eggs... crazy stuff... too bad they are no good for the environment.
Ellie!!!
I love plants!! I don’t know anything about elderberry! Did you do anything with the fruit??
This is great writing.
no fruit yet!! might try something with it when I’m back in July though
