North Central Massachusetts (N (Zone 5b) Life & gardens: make them beautiful        joannakat Jul 5, 2019 11:48 AM CST |
It's coming up all over. Bees and small fly-likes seem to love it. The size of the entire "head" shown is less than that of a quarter.  The leaves are, I think, laciniate. AKA Joey. |

| Hmmm, not sure on either of those. Scabiosa is the pin-cushion flower, right? I'll have to view more pictures of both later tonight or tomorrow... AKA Joey. |

| Hi, yes... This is the one that I was thinking of... Field Scabiosa (Knautia arvensis subsp. arvensis) |

| Maybe Lacy Phacelia (Phacelia tanacetifolia) ? ~ I'm an old gal who still loves playing in the dirt! ~ Playing in the dirt is my therapy ... and I'm in therapy a lot! |

| Joanna, do you have a photo of the leaves? Here's another Scabiosa for comparison: ~ I'm an old gal who still loves playing in the dirt! ~ Playing in the dirt is my therapy ... and I'm in therapy a lot! |

| Lin, I don't just now and I'm running out to teach. I'll take one tomorrow and post it along with more pictures of the blooms--I say blooms because it's like there's a tiny flower bursting out of every pore of this beauty! AKA Joey. |
