I had a chance to use the word didymus when describing the seed pods of Menodora, but forgot, so here: the common name twinberry for Menodora scabra refers to the didymus seed capules, side by side small globes…twins.
The short trail that I walked is actually a city park. If you walked nonstop from end to end it would take maybe ten minutes. Several years ago I walked that little city park trail with some friends and fellow flora/fauna geeks. I think it took us over two hours while we identified and jabbered about the plants and pollinators we saw. It was a blast and it was a blast again on the day described in this episode.
The photos are mine. They’re not that great, so I guess you have to go look for yourself. Yay!
