OM DENNE EPISODE
It was Carl Linnaeus, the king of binomial nomenclature, who decided to use the classical Latin name fraxinus as the genus for ash trees. One hundred years later the American botanist John Torrey gave the species name velutina to the tree I’m talking about in this episode; Fraxinus velutina or velvet ash. There are sixty-five to seventy species of Fraxinus found around the world. Seven of those species are found in Arizona, so hey, collect them all! The photos are mine of velvet ash along our driveway and in fall color.

An episode written and recorded amidst the cluttered space that I call “books and bones.” Asclepias involucrata has a wide range in the southwestern US and into Mexico. I’m thinking It would be a fun addition to a wildflower pollinator garden, so ask about it at your favorite native plant nursery. …
Arizona white oak is Quercus arizonica. I’ve come across some magnificent ones over the last 30 years of living near them. We planted a few in our yard as well, grown from collected acorns. Those oaks have stories too. The photos are mine of some of my clutter and that’s Ms. Mesquitey’s hand on the…
