I seem to be making more wildflower discoveries every day, pouring through my books to identify them. Just imagine, these are only the ones I am finding on my property… I pass by so many others in my travels through this area. We are truly blessed to live in an area so rich.
When is a wildflower a weed? In the case of “Cranes Bill”, shown in this slide show, I must confess calling it a weed. It has taken over this year, introducing itself into all of my “cultivated” gardens. I have planted showy evening primrose, echinacea, and other wild flowers into my gardens, so that absolves me from insulting Mother Nature I hope!
Too busy gardening to paint much these days, but it’s all part of the inspiration process.
