Pine Cone Musings Horticulture and Home Pest News

Over the holidays, I bribed my son into collecting pine cones for me. Not only does this activity keep the future entrepreneur busy, but it helps clean up the landscape, and gives me something to use for winter decorations and crafts. When he was delivering his $2 dollar allotment of pine cones, he asked me "Mom, do pine cones only come from pine trees?" Now you might quickly answer that question with a hearty "Yes or No!" but remember than I'm a horticulture educator so I went into a much longer explanation. It only took 2 minutes for him to roll his eyes and walk away bored.
