Wildflower Wednesday #12

After a week hiatus, Wildflower Wednesday is back! Milkweed is at it's peak right now, with tons of pollinators visiting such as the Perplexing Bumblebee (Bombus perplexus) pictured to the right.  Check out issue #11 for more about the milkweed flower.



Also in boom this morning at NBNC were:



Black-eyed Susan popping up around the field


Some worn Fringed Yellow-loosestrife by the river


The first Queen Anne's Lace flowers opening around the field


And a Canada Lily near the community garden being munched on by the Lily Leaf Beetle
