MATCH GAME

Hello! You are probably at this page because I met you and gave you a card. So this site is new, and that card is old (I still had so many to burn through!) and I don't have the match game on this website.

But I am sure I'm glad I met you, and if you are interested in some other plant info, check out the Flora galleries; it's highly likely the picture on your card is in there somewhere.

I know there is probably no way that I will be able to come up with a novel way to photograph cherry blossoms...but they are so pretty.

Ericaceae - heath family. Radially symmetrical, corolla often fused into tube, urn or bell shape.

Grossulariaceae - currant family. Calyx, corolla and anthers fused into hypanthium, sepals more showy than petals. Ovaries inferior, develop into berries. Ribes (currants & gooseberries) only genus in WA.

Liliaceae - 6 showy tepals, ovaries superior, 6 anthers.

Ericaceae poricidal anthers (a pore to disperse pollen - like little salt shakers)

Ranunculaceae - buttercup family. Pistils separate, stamens numerous; ovary superior, sepals often petal-like.

Salix I'm guessing
