that one plant up there that is a tree, it looks to me like an elm of sorts, possibly slippery elm, or american elm, or another species of elm. just a guess though. and I learned yesterday on a plant walk with an ethnobotanist friend of mine that you can eat hostas! who would have thought. my dad has been planting them for years (he is a horticulturist) and I had no idea.

The bigger it gets the more treelike it’s getting. I even had a thought that it looked like a mini tree. Thanks for sharing your thoughts about the plant.
What? Really? Hostas are edible? I would have never guessed that.
Thanks again for stopping by and leaving your input ~
Elms are pretty cool! Rare in some cases, like American Elm and Slippery Elm. Yeah! The ethnobotany Marc Williams, my friend in North Carolina, on a plant walk the other day, told me Hostas are eaten in some cultures. had no idea.
Thanks for sharing that with me...I learn something new daily :)
