Beautiful. I love the Monarda. Do you dry any of the leaves for teas I wonder.
ReplyDeleteI plan to this year! Also some of the catnip, because there is way more than will be needed for feline entertainment purposes, and I've read that catnip tea is relaxing.
DeleteIf catnip varies in its effect on humans the way it does on cats, this should be interesting.
DeleteOoh - those top flowers are interesting.
ReplyDeleteBee balm! This group is brilliant magenta, and the other big group is deep scarlet. The subject of hundreds of photographs, and I've become slightly obsessed with drawing and painting them, too. Your hummingbirds and bees will LOVE them!
DeleteSuch simple beauty, Quinn.
ReplyDeleteIt's everywhere :)
DeleteIsn't the other photo pepper grass? or something like that, can't remember...red top?...
ReplyDeleteIt's commonly called "smartweed" here, but it may well be called pepper grass somewhere else, as the "smart" in smartweed relates to a peppery taste, not intelligence-bestowing properties ;) I think this species is Persicaria pensylvanica, but not absolutely sure. There are usually this pink one and a taller, white one, in the gardens by the barns. I haven't yet figured out what the two different species are, and haven't noticed the white one this year - I'll keep an eye out for it, and see if I can work out the species.
DeleteI love smartweed, never pull it out like a weed. Actually there are quite a few "weeds" I leave alone because they're as nice as my cultivated plantings.
ReplyDeleteI would love an outfit in that wonderful fushia colour! I'm not a fan of pink overall, but I do love fushia. Beautiful flowers Quinn.
ReplyDeleteI love pinks and reds but cannot wear them at all. Making up for it with flowers :)
