Interesting remark in Wikipedia: "European Spindle wood is very hard, and can be cut to a very sharp point; it was used in the past for making spindles for spinning wool."; October 7, 2008 at 12:08 PM

Tanya Breese said...: I don't know but when I see red seeds I always think of the quote from the goat lady in Cold Mountain, which sums it up quite well!; October 7, 2008 at 3:32 PM
Halcyon said...: They are pretty. I like anything that is red. :); October 7, 2008 at 5:39 PM
Lothiane said...: I don't know what they are either, but it's a lovely colour. They light up the autumn!; October 7, 2008 at 10:59 PM
Z said...: Insider: Thank you! You've got it.

RR: Insider has the answer.

Tanya: I don't remember the quote. A quick Google search didn't help either.

Halcyon: You're easy to please!

Lothiane: I like how you put it.; October 8, 2008 at 10:39 AM
