Hi Guys:

Here's something thought you might be interested. This tree is mad from yarrow after it has bloomed and died off. Saw some around a parking lot and asked the owner if I could pick some. I think I may just plant a couple in the back yard. The top picture is how it came off the bush

Here's a few photos. The first one is of the the dead flower as I picked it. The second one is of it after sprayed with liquit adhesive and then sprinkled with Woodland Scenics #T1363 Light Green Coarse Turf.

Cheap way to make nice trees.

Wow.  Cool.  I should look into seeing if that stuff would grow in rocky, untended ground.

Karl, good job. This tree looks exactly like the "Forest Canopy" boxes of trees that Woodland Scenics charge oodles of $$$ for.
