#gayfeather — Public Fediverse posts

In our front yard, one of my fave perennials is finally blooming again & bringing me some floral joys. Unlike most other flowering plants, liatris blooms downwards & not upwards. Their tiny spiky/fringe flowers last for quite some time after blooming. Pollinators absolutely adore liatris flowers & swarm them in Summer.

Lots of my #liatris #perennial #plants are bursting with many new flower buds. It's aka #gayfeather & #BlazingStar 🌸
Flower moth larvae love using this plant as food. Pollinators adore their bright pink bottle brush flowers; which bloom from distinct 2-4' tall spike stalks.
