The Earliest Daylilies
Daylilies in April! Old Pa Pitt likes to claim that he has the earliest daylilies in Pittsburgh. They came from an unnamed hybrid seedling, which just happened to inherit an assortment of genes that, juggled and shaken together, made plants that bloomed at the end of tulip season.
Can you prove that you have daylilies in tulip season? you might ask. Well, for that purpose, old Pa Pitt actually planted a tulip in front of the daylily patch.

Fallen Trees in the Woods
Fallen trees add greatly to the picturesqueness of the woods. We suppose it’s not much fun for the tree, and of course no one wants to be there when it falls, but the decaying logs make little waterfalls in woodland streams and provide a surface for forests of moss and bracket fungi. These pictures came from Bird Park this afternoon.

Daffodil in the Woods
Fujifilm FinePix HS20EXR. A patch of daffodils may persist indefinitely after it has been planted, so daffodils often mark old homesites. They may also spill downhill from the original planting. This one was blooming in the woods in Beechview along Milo Street, one of those streets that show up on paper but turn out to be stairways through the woods when you get there.
