Hannah is pretty darn good at identifying plants. We were out picking blackberries the other day (more on that later…) and she found some bamboo among the berries. Weird, but there it was.
She was clearly thinking about it on the way home: “Mama, can we plant a little bit of bamboo?”
I hedged a bit, thinking about how bamboo spreads like wildfire and takes over entire neighborhoods within seconds of being planted. “Maybe. Why do you want to plant bamboo?”
“I’d like to attract any pandas that might be around.”
…"Oh. Well, pandas don’t really live in our area except in zoos.”
Hannah paused only briefly. “Well, maybe gorillas then.”
