Fragile and loved by the Hummingbirds Artwork mine own

Ironweed. I don't see this much here as it normally needs more dampness. That said.. I get occasional stems of it. I love the colour and this was catching shaded morning light. Its a disaster year here. Literally.. no butterflies.... no bees.... nothing. Maybe they will still come Artwork mine own

The gophers have eaten nearly all the Snowdrops and Crocus bulbs.. and the Hyacinths :((

Tonight is the first blooming this year. The perfume is glorious. These were taken tonight just before a huge Thunderstorm hit us !
