Meadow Wildflowers

The woodland wildflowers are mostly done blooming now. During summer, I tend to turn my focus to meadow and wetland wildflowers. Here are some that are just starting to bloom.

The butterfly weed was actually the one I purchased two weekends ago. It is still in its pot and is a bit ahead of those I planted last year. Those are now up and forming flower buds.

The Penstemon digitalis is just starting to open up. The sundrops are from the flowerbed created by the previous owner(s).

I took these pictures before mowing the lawn, and before my encounter with the doe.
