Ray's Thought for the Day

Uh, Nancy, the Goddess of Practical Jokes has asked me to impart the following:

Blodeuwedd is pronounced - Blod aye weth - with the emphasis on the penultimate syllable.

All righty then.

Now I, Ray would like to share with y'all some interesting information on a little wonder that is troublesome in these parts and shouldn't be in these parts and is about the worst invasive winter weed in these parts. This particular invasive winter weed is rescuegrass, or as the learned call it, either Bromus uniloides or Bromus catharticus or maybe something else. In any event, rescuegrass is a bad one for crowding out the native little wonders. Pictured are a couple of 'em seedin' out. As you can see they are tiny, but seedin' out anyway. They also seed out when they are three feet tall. No wonder they are takin' over. They are winter annuals, but hold place like they are perennials by smotherin' the ground with vegetation and seeds. Yikes! We kill'em all at RGVECB.
