HAVE: pics of pine cone seeds
Comments (3)Kudos to naturegirl_2007 for picking out the Norway spruce. naturegirl_2007 please pick out anything on my trade list or a combination and i will send it to u for free, no trade needed. I picked these cones over a year ago and had white pine on the brain. I revisited the patch of trees and found them to be spruce, for sure. The white pines were in a separate patch about 50 feet from the spruce. I have posted another pic that show the white pine to the left and to the right of it are the cones that came from the spruce tree that I picked the cones from. In the center is a spring flower from a swamp. If anybody can ID this flower for me please let me know. Luckily, know one has wanted the pine cone seeds that are really spruce seeds so I got lucky that none got sent out....See MoreDo Squirrels eat young Pine candles/cones?
Comments (23)Rabbits don't like us humans to redecorate 'their' areas. Even when I rearrange my pet bunnies' room (they have the run of the screen porch,) they have to remark everything (chin rubbing) and will try to move things back. Teeth don't work well for hauling, so it's easier to just nip some things to try to get them to move. Also, bunnies teeth keep growing, so they chomp just to wear the teeth down. And bunnies love a project! Once they decide to start in on that new wallpaper, or new sofa, or new pine tree, they will go back again and again. That's why mine are no longer allowed in the bedrooms. They love to sit and pull carpetfibers out of the backing and will sit and pull fibers till they have a bald spot in the rug, in an OCD kind of way. So, I always plan to protect all new tree purchases when they are being planted in places where bunnies have nested in my yard. Wild bunnies think all new trees must be re-arranged too! Easiest for me is chicken wire around a tomato cage for support....See Morepine cones

Comments (5)Well the ones we have are also black. But with 2 Rhodesian Ridgbacks guarding the yard, they better time their snacking well! - Of course the RR's are guarding the trees... what else?? LOL Guess their favourites have been the Scots cones. They have left alone the pinus mugo, pinus densiflora tanyosho & the pinus resinosa ocnes. Dax, what do yours favour? cheers, greenrr...See MoreGregLang
