Early Summer Flowers - Ed Hurst - 06-12-2024     Tiny lavender flowers near one of my natural prayer chapels.     Close to that was a spray of tiny daisies.     A couple of miles from there I found these taller lavender colored blossoms.     These are some purple staff looking flowers.     Just for fun, this is the trailing edge of a cloud front moving north. RE: Early Summer Flowers - jaybreak - 06-13-2024 Must be an event to come across these as the first sprouts of the season or in an area where nothing eye-catching is growing. There was a funny thread on Twitter/X I found a while back that rated the root systems of various plants. You can't read it anymore unless you have an account account. For some reason these photos reminded me of that thread. RE: Early Summer Flowers - Ed Hurst - 06-20-2024 A couple more...     Just a scattering of tiny flowers in the grass     I've heard these called "fire daisies", I suppose because the center is bright red RE: Early Summer Flowers - forrealone - 06-20-2024 I love wildflowers!  The photo third down of tallish with purple flowers looks like Monarda aka Bee Balm.  Its in the same family as wild Bergamot. You have an amazing array in your state, so close to a city!  Very cool...... RE: Early Summer Flowers - Ed Hurst - 06-20-2024 Most of the time I have no idea what they are called. I do know that echinacea grows wild here, and I can recognize it, along with a half dozen more, but not many. RE: Early Summer Flowers - jaybreak - 06-20-2024 "Fire daisies" is a cool name. I approve. RE: Early Summer Flowers - Robust1 - 06-21-2024 I love wildflowers and trees. This is the first spring in ages I didn't make it out hiking to celebrate the flowering of the Trilliums. Thanks for sharing the photos! RE: Early Summer Flowers - davew9804 - 06-22-2024 Great photos Ed. Glad you are "out and about"! RE: Early Summer Flowers - Ed Hurst - 06-25-2024 Here's one more, in which the blossoms are stacked vertically.     Just for fun, here's the dawn of a hot day. Those aren't storm clouds, but a response to heat and moisture with no energy.     RE: Early Summer Flowers - jaybreak - 06-29-2024 Wow. If I didn't know better I'd say those buildings were on fire, at least for the initial moment. Neat perspective.
