Field Notes

Description:

This looked like a large bush, hundreds of these pink fluffy flowers. They grow out of the thing that looks like a berry. There were ALOT of bees buzzing all around these plants.

These pink flowers were on the small side. Not as large as the first picture makes them appear. They are no larger than a small walnut.
