My favorite little Oregon native corner 🥰 with wood sorrel, pacific bleeding heart, and sword fern ( lemmy.ca )
Blue Vervain from last year ( lemmy.world )
Pic from a fen restoration I help with. Prettiest one I've seen.
[Northeast U.S.A.] Aronia melanocarpa doing well in its second year ( assets.pxlmo.com )
I got these as bare-root saplings a couple years old, and planted them last year. One actually bloomed and produced some berries the same year I planted it! These things sure are prolific. This year, they're all already blooming....
Not Butterfly Weed? ( lemmy.world )
I've been hoping all year that this plant was going to be a huge, beautiful butterfly weed bunch, but after seeing actual butterfly weed on a field trip for my field botany class, this doesn't appear to be butterfly weed after all....
Mangy, but lively ( lemmy.world )
I got pollinator seed packs from the Tennessee Environmental Council a while back, they seem to be doing the trick now....
Update: my garden exploded ( lemmy.world )
I posted a couple days ago, but in the interim my yarrow, black-eyed susans, and wild bergamot went wild!...

Swamp Sunflowers in bloom ( sh.itjust.works )
No hurricanes this year means that my swamp sunflowers didn't get knocked over! Also something about the lighting made this bee look silver even though it's really metallic green. Florida, Zone 9b
Cleome serrulata are beautiful and plentiful this year! ( assets.pxlmo.com )
I post a lot of edible plants native to (roughly) the Northeast U.S. on my Pixelfed account.
