It's Wildflower Wednesday here on the Blog! Today's flower is Common Milkweed. The Monarchs use it as a staple but, as you can see, bees enjoy it as well. I was pleased to be able to transplant and have grow a plant of it when they had done some roadwork near my house several years ago now. I find the blooms of it quite interesting with all the small flowers making up a ball.
Glad you transplanted some. Many people tear it out!!
ReplyDeleteThanks Jim. Well, that's not very good.
DeleteI agree with Jim, it's great you were able to save some. It's quite a lovely looking flower.
ReplyDeleteIt is a neat one, thanks Tom!
