    Very lovely album.  You might enjoy this oldie but goodie from Bartram's Gardens in Pennsylvania when they found 200 year old seed packets in the floor of the attic.  https://www.bartramsgarden.org/found-floorboards-200-year-old-seed-packets/

    William Bartram did a famous walk across the South (Library of Congress) in the early 1770s. He had quite a correspondence later with Thomas Jefferson (Library of Congress). Monticello's famous, now sadly deceased, tulip poplar came from Bartram's. 

    That's fascinating...thank you, Michelle!
