Wildflower Wandering

Our friend by the mailbox is waiting...


Pink Mallows peak out along the path, but no hurry...


The Water Primrose are beginning to bloom along the ditches
Ludwigia

What are all these little bits of stamens
 stuck to my pant legs....Tickseed.


Dainty dependable Mexican Petunia,
guaranteed to have a few blooms all summer long.


The perennial yellow daisy that nether rain nor snow
nor drought or a forest fire couldn't kill aways smiling.


One of my favorite that I wait all year
to see come back in bloom...American beauty-berry.
Callicarpa americana L.

A field of moist Sword Fern along the way
 is so refreshing on a hot summer day.


What walk would not be complete without
watching the Spanish Moss swaying in the breeze.


See, we really did end up at the mailboxes.


See ya later, when I will pick another day
to wander through the wildflowers. After years of posting
to this wildflower blog of our area, I now only post a better
picture of ones already posted.  Still hope you will view a few recipes
and find time to wander through the wildflowers. :)
