What facebook groups do you use for plant identification? I'm always trying to look stuff up, and can't always find them in my books.<br />You're right, we did meet by talking about our cabins; yours is so lovely it caught my attention right away! xoxo<br />Sharmon Davidsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12857659019638341374noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9162234011271401496.post-67182224749358538832016-08-03T20:32:59.717-04:002016-08-03T20:32:59.717-04:00I agree that the large bush with lovely sprays of ...I agree that the large bush with lovely sprays of flowers is an elderberry bush. There are a number of kinds. People make things with the flowers and later the berries when ripe. <br /><br />I love those little orange mushrooms. I tried to look them up, but did not find them. I use FB groups to ID mushrooms and flowers. The folks are so helpful!<br /><br />So nice that you got to go out to your land/cabins. The first time i met you I think was a cabin post.

I like your log cabin both the renovated and the newly built. The mushrooms are new to me, look so unique. Excuse me if I am wrong, but I think the lace like flowers you asked is one kind of species of hydrangea because they resemble “Hydrangea hirta” native to Japan, though ours is much smaller. They grow into large bush and like dappled shade. Thank you for your visit.
