My wildflowers......
Things are really just getting started here but here is a sampling of what's blooming now.
Somehow I can never get this to look like I see it in real life - a sea of lavender color interspersed with the red brooms.
More of the lavender mist look with a background of white
The sea of red -- for the life of me I can't remember the name of this plant & I have photos of it in the db but can't find it b/c I've forgotten the name. It's comprised of itsy, bitsy, teeny, tiny reddish pink blooms.
Close up of it
Phlox, more broom plant & gaillardia
This is the sea of lavender closer up - it's Stachys floridana or Fl. Hedgenettle
The white close up
Venus' Looking-Glass - Triodanis perfoliata
I forget
Virginia Peppergrass - Lepidium virginicum
Dandelions all over the place
- they had closed for the day by the time I got out there for photo taking otherwise you would have seen yellow blooms interspersed in all the photos
Carolina Cranesbill - Geranium carolinianum

Wild carrot?????
I have no clue what this is but the blooms are dainty & lovely. I need to put it in the ID forum.
The phlox down by the gate are really starting to get showy
Creeping Wood Sorrel - Oxalis corniculata
