09.09.09 Velvetleaf - Pam Johnson Brickell


Given this special 'number day' in September, I had to sketch something so I'd remember where I was. Sketch I did, I just didn't finish this page until yesterday :)

We had these plants all over our lot when we built our NY home. I remember how amazed I was at softness of the leaves - just like velvet......duh :)  But, I was even more amazed to learn that the seeds can remain viable for 50 years!
