What's Growing in North Carolina
I live in the Raleigh/Durham/Chapel Hill area, but would love to learn what all grows in NC. What's growing wild, what can be planted, when can it be planted, and how it should be planted. I am interested in trees, flowers, plants, and what some call "weeds" (like dandelions and clover flowers). I am also interested in foraging and apothecary, and would like to know what all NC has to offer.
