Wild Flower Conundrum
Three wildflowers in a field while out walking the dogs yesterday. The bottom is Queen Anne's Lace or wild carrot, but if anyone knows what the other two are, let me know in the comments.
Wild/feral iris, Penstemon/beardtongue
ReplyDeleteThe top ism apparently, radescantia virginiana, commonly called Spiderwort.

Wow! That was fast. Got them both!
ReplyDeleteYou got the first one, it is indeed native Spiderwort (there is apparently a non-native called by the same name, just to confuse us all I'm sure).
ReplyDeleteThe second photo appears to be Foxglove, truly spectacular ...
