mid summer wildflowers

I'm adding some pretty photos to follow the warty toad and blighted potatoes. The fields near our community gardens are beautiful now with bright mid summer colors. Joe Pye Weed is always my favorite. Its just starting to bloom. Also lots of golden rod, purple loosestrife, milkweed, vetch and Queen Anne's Lace.

wildflowers, weeds, invasives and natives

Last year I planted a butterfly garden surrounding my veggie garden. It's finally starting to bloom. Flowers and vegetables.., what could be better!

Yes, all gardens need some flowers. Purple loosestrife is on the list of not allowed to grow here in Nebraska.

Great photos!
