  10. OMG!!! I never thought of doing a closeup of the sumac. Outstanding---I had no idea they could be so beautiful.

    The seed pos of the rose of sharon I had never heard of either. On a forum I belong too some one was wondering why anyone would want a RS because of them. In my book it says some singles develope them and they cause suckers to grow everywhere so I mentioned it only because i wanted everyone to know I didn't have that kind. Does that make sense? MB

  19. That is a gorgeous macro!

    It seems to me that sumac is non-edible, right?

    Super colors!

  20. Jacob,

    You can soak the berries, strain out the fuzz, add a tiny bit of sugar...and it tastes like lemonade.

    I've also used the juice with elderberries to make the yummiest jelly.
