I enjoyed your gallery.

What wonderful work with your framing, Donna! Each one is a treat to the eyes!

Thank you bryan27, I have renamed the gallery to correct any unintended misinformation. If the Wild Garlic is noxious, it can't be too invasive here as it is the only one I've seen so far.

Very beautiful pictures. However, several specimens are NOT native West Virginia flora. The "Tree in Fruit" is Tree-of-heaven (Ailanthus altissima)a noxious weed which prevents native trees from growing. The Day Lilly is a European import. "Unidentified Small Pink Wildflower" appears to be Wild Garlic (Allium vineale), although good to cook with, is also a noxious weed. Yarrow (Achillea millefolium) is used to make snake bite ointment, but is also a Eurpoean import. Queen Anne's Lace (Daucus carota) is Wild Carrot which comes from East Asia.
