Eight years ago today 🌿

Astragalus spatulatus, our Tufted Milkvetch, carpeting the roadside with tiny flowers in dense low mats in Dinosaur National Monument #nativeolants

Flowers of the day 🌿

the absurdly red hummingbird feeder, Silene virginica | fire pink

the dainty, vaguely orange-blossom-like Ptelea trifoliata, hop tree, from my county record tree

carrionflower | Smilax herbacea, a stinky greenbriar

Euphorbia corollata | flowering spurge
