Josey Ranch Plants – July 2023
/Some plants of note at Josey Ranch (Carrollton, TX).…noticed while I was looking at birds….
In the garden between the big pond and library/senior center – I realized there were quite a few beautyberries. Most of them were doing great. There was one that was wilted (as was the redbud tree growing near it). I guessed that the sprinkler system was not working properly. Even native plants are challenged by days and days (maybe weeks and weeks) of 100+ temperatures with very little rain!
In the Pocket Prairie area – the sunflowers were still growing very well.
There was a surprise zinnia. Not sure why it was there with the native plants but it was growing quite happily.
In the area just outside the Pocket Prairie, there where cracks in the sod/soil and some strange features. At first, I thought they were roots but now I am not sure.
