2012/05/17/Will Cook notes

This was transcribed from handscribbled notes made as we walked around the yard at 122 Pinecrest (aka the Hypertwins Outdoor Arboretum) with Will Cook.

part 0

This seems to be first, but it's unlabeled. I don't know why I called the next section Part 1 instead of Part 2; perhaps this unlabeled section is actually the second part of Part 1.

• Sugar Maple
• American Beech
• Black Gum
• European Laurel Cherry (the thing that is not Rhododendron)
• Sugarberry (over slide)

part 1

I think we were wandering past the swingset by this time...

• Black Gum (by slope)
• Mock Orange (confirmation)
• Red Maple (Wisteria-laden tree on other side of right-of-way)
• Red Maple (near brush pile)
• Shortleaf Pine
• Loblolly Pine

part 2

Presumably this starts by the back corner of the house by the bay window

• Euphorbia (confirmation)
• Salvia (purple flowers)
• Mistflower
• Primrose
• frondy thing is a mystery
• Abelia (butterfly bush)
• Southern Red Oak
• Muscadine (Scuppernong)
• Mugwort
• Dock
• Hop-Hornbeam (behind large pine)
• Downy Arrowwood (in front)
• White Ash (near fallen pine)

part 3

• Chincopean (sp?)
• Winged Elm
• other 1/2 lot:
  • Hickory? (smaller tree) Bitter Nut Hickory
  • Walnut (larger tree)

part 4
