Another obsesssion this spring is Blue-eyed grass (Sisyrinchium augustifolium). The only reason I know the name is because I saw it for sale at the Native Plant Society sale. This little cutie just showed up next to this tree a few years ago, and began my love of this grass. Now I find myself looking for it everywhere. I have found it in my lawn, and moved it to a protected spot. I read somewhere to check before harvesting, that it may be a protected native plant, but I'm sure it's okay to move it in my own yard. Anyway, what a pretty thing to find as I walk up the hill from the creek. Ain't life good? Sheila
