Fairybells In Fruit

Day 314: My very own pet Prosartes hookeri, growing out under Big Doug, is fruiting, and I hope that means it will seed itself and fill in as I remove more and more of the Stinky Bob. I think my weeding efforts may have been what brought this native plant's seeds to the surface. In fact, Big Doug has two specimens of Fairybells growing at his base. The second did not produce berries, or if it did, they were consumed by critters unknown. Squirrels would be the most likely culprit, and the berries are edible by humans, although bland in taste. Perhaps my diligent program of squirrel relocation also played a role in these plants' occurrence in my yard.
