365Caws is now in its 16th year of publication. If I am unable to post daily, I hope readers who love the natural world and fiberarts will seize those days to read the older material. Remember that this has been my journey as well, so you may find errors in my identifications of plants. I have tried to correct them as I discover them. Likewise, I have refined fiberarts techniques and have adjusted recipes, so search by tags to find the most current information. And thank you for following me!

Spoon Among Mums
Day 359: Each autumn, I am tempted by the displays of chrysanthemums which populate the entryways of all the home-and-garden stores. Occasionally, I break down and buy one, figuring that a few short weeks of fall color is worth a couple of bucks. This year, I got a surprise. My 'mum from last year sprouted from the root and burgeoned into a good-sized plant, even crowding the Osteospermum ("Spoon Flower") adjacent to it. Now that's a good return on your dollar!
