A plant to plant, not a plant to dose. Cha bhris am freumh — the root does not break.

What's the one you'd put in the ground knowing you won't see it finished?

Prairie is among the most destroyed habitats on this continent, and this is one of its markers.

Everything you can see of it is built to be burned off.

The taproot goes fifteen feet down into ground nobody has broken since before there was a state there. Some live close to a century.

Nine feet up in the tallgrass, leaves turned north and south to duck the midday sun. That's how it got the name — and how people once took a bearing on open ground with nothing else to sight on.

Silphium laciniatum. Blooming right now through September.

Autumn Lady's-tresses orchid, near #Bath this weekend. They were late this year, but came out in abundance after a few days of rain.

Today's #WildflowerHour has an #InvasivePlants challenge and I was visiting my mother just before the heatwave hit, so of course I got some pics of the wonderful Mexican Fleabane which is taking over her patio via the cracks in the paving. Resistance is futile (and why would anyone want to?) #Wendover #Buckinghamshire #Bloomscrolling #botany #plants #flowers #wildflowers #photography

This week's #WildflowerHour challenge is #InvasivePlants. Japanese knotweed? Himalayan balsam? Triffids? Find one and get a photo, as long as we get some weather where it's safe to venture out.

In Gaspe the other week I stumbled across Sibbaldia.

I was familiar with this mountain specialist from British field guides, but had never actually seen it - and here it is, in Canada.

Its weird, because the flowers are like a rose family (Potentilla comes to mind), but the leaves are very Clover.

Quite a few alpine species are found in both Canada and Europe.
