Learn about SC

I was at our monthly Dinner Club with friends when someone starting listing off the symbols of South Carolina.  Sadly, I didn't know many of them... but neither did some of the natives in the room!  I lived in North Carolina in 4th grade, the year you usually learn fun facts about your state.  I can list many about the Tarheel State and I'm slowly learning about my Palmetto State home.  You can learn with me about South Carolina symbols, and we'll start with the "plants and edibles" section for today:
