In Arkansas, we can often tell we are approching an historic site by
the vegetation long before we actuall reach the site.  Large Walnut
trees (food and shade), large White Oak shade trees, Persimmon,
Catalba, Pecan, large Mullberry, Yucca, Jonquils, Day Lillies, Iris,
Forscythia, Gooseberries, and Golden Rod are the most common.
