When people ask me “What is the best way to learn plant names?”, I always suggest that they look often at the plants near where they live in all seasons and learn those first.

NATURE POETRY
While the bright radiant sun in centre glows,
The earth in annual motion round it goes;
At the same time on its own axis reels,
And gives us change of seasons as it wheels. – The 1793 Old Farmer’s Almanac

After the many posts you’ve done far and wide for our benefit, I’m delighted that today, at least, you accomplished the task a mere stone’s throw from a hot cup of coffee. Have a great day!
Talk about staying close to home (not that you have to stay that close to home!) Wonderful things in your backyard, Miles. And a Butternut! Wonderful pictures. Thanks, Miles!
