Never heard of the plant, or the diacritical mark. Thank God for morewords.

mine are small ones, up tp two feet, the shade one must be gorgeous
7:53 am

well, I am stuck with 28 left. 5-6-10-4-3. so many big ones left, not my kind of grid.
8:03 am
hokie carla
pretty plants. not sure I've ever seen those before either.
8:04 am
bichon
Maybe they don't grow in the South. See it a lot here
8:07 am
bichon
They need acidic soil and shade in hot summer
8:08 am
Dorens
They're all over my yard. Dependable in the shade, which my towering oaks provide, and my ubiquitous deer don't like them.
8:08 am
hokie carla
it says zones 4-8 and that I'm in 7, but high water needs, so maybe people just don't plant them here.
8:08 am
BzznBea
what plant?
8:14 am
BzznBea
also known as false goat beard. very pretty native shade loving plant.
8:16 am
mael
oh it is native to the southeast! cool. I just knew it wasn't native in New England
8:17 am
hokie carla
guess I just haven't been paying attention 🤣
8:17 am
MollyL
I was wondering about the "native"/"not native" comments. Thanks for clearing that up, mael.
8:17 am
mael
or rather, goat's beard is. The ones you generally find in home gardens aren't native to north america.
8:17 am
mael
they're an asian ornamental
8:18 am
BzznBea
they are the japonica species
8:36 am

8:47 am
Shirlockc

8:47 am
rururocks
I knew Hokie was going to sprout off about something sooner or later
8:48 am
hokie carla
maybe you could weed out your thoughts before posting
8:49 am
rururocks
well I can be a pun hoe some times
8:49 am
Shirlockc
we're all adults here, of the folly-age, we can take it
8:52 am
hokie carla
we could branch off and do something else
8:53 am
rururocks
that's going out on a limb a bit there hokie you know how we are
8:53 am
BzznBea
ru can share his knowledge of be7
8:54 am
rururocks
ha.. I got that one right away be
8:54 am
hokie carla
I hope a word can stem from this chat
8:54 am
BzznBea
i knew you would
8:55 am
rururocks
we hope hokie will be planted in reality with this thread

I actually just started nodding off reading an article about why we use Latin names for plants. Somewhere around "binomial system of nomenclature".
9:08 am
BzznBea
I know that phrase well
9:08 am
hokie carla
also still have only one E on the last col
9:10 am
BzznBea
they are all et, carla. five and two fours
9:11 am
hokie carla
found the other 4, thx. HOET
9:34 am
hokie carla
just sat back down and finally found the et5, geez.
9:37 am
mael
hey, I'm a big fan of latin names for plants
9:39 am
BzznBea
makes sense to use latin.
9:39 am
hokie carla
latin never makes sense to use. it's a dead language!
9:40 am
BzznBea
sciences use latin all the time
9:41 am
hokie carla
I know
9:41 am
mael
but it's very specific! if you call something an asclepias syriaca there's no confusion, if you say milkweed it could mean one of hundreds of different kinds of plants!
9:41 am
saanichcat
in plant terminology, ,Latin is the only way. it is worldwide. there are no confusions using the proper lati term
9:42 am
BzznBea
And its been that way for a few years.
9:45 am

I have a weird way of playing so that I don't move on from any tile until I am at 2 or fewer, unless I get desperate... it keeps me from typing the same words in over and over again, but it means I'm slow the first time through
11:27 am
hurshy
i do it similarly nrkii

11:31 am

I try to complete every tile, but by the time I get to the middle I'm typically too impatient
11:32 am

And if people aren't actively cluing, I go to the Lickety list once I pass 90%. 17 years ago (WOW) when I started playing, I would hold out and ask for clues, and give clues. I've gotten less patient as I've aged, though I still enjoy giving clues if anyone needs them while I'm here. :-)
