Pam,
Happy Shell Patrick’s Day
Thanks for all the great Cyber Shelling !
Happy St. Patrick’s Day!
Hey Pam — Happy St. Patrick’s Day to you as well. Just a note about your Shamrock. I’m afraid what you’ve pictured is not a a clover, but almost certainly a species of Oxalis, most likely O. regnellii. They are sold as shamrock in stores, but is not a clover, nor Trifolium. Superficially looks like aTrifolium though. (I’m one of those plant people, but shells come a pretty close second).
We enjoyed the Feb. 9 trip with you to Cayo Costa. It is our son Aaron Homoya that is shown in the second picture on your Feb. 11 blog (he’s with blue jacket and white shorts crouching over a shell rack). The next picture down is the hand of my wife Barbara Homoya with the caption “It’s a shellucky day!” It would be great if you could identify them in the captions :-) Keep on Shelling!
hahaha Thank you Michael. It was so funny that you say that! I researched “Shamrock” since that’s what it said on the plant Clark gave me for St Patty’s day yesterday (so sweet). I thought it was so cute so I immediately thought of the rhyme and researched to find out what kind of “shamrock” it was. There’s really NO good info on “shamrocks” on the internet. Weird, huh? One little tiny project turned into hours of researching and photographing. I saw that “Oxalis” but it didn’t really fit the bill completely and honestly…. I liked the way the other name “looked” on my image…. so that one won. LOL As you know, Im more into shells and it was a silly little fun thing. But… fyi- wikipedia says that a shamrock is a young sprig of clover so thats why i named it that. Anyhow… when I need to know my plants next time (before I spend too much time researching the internet) Im coming TO YOU! HAHAHA Happy St Pats
Cute! Happy St. Patrick’s Day, Pam! (13 days til Sanibel!)
