3/1/23

 Happy 1st of March!  Spring should be on the way soon!  Today is also Wildflower Wednesday here on the Blog.  Today's flower is one that is very important.  This is Common Milkweed, the one that Monarchs need.  I was fortunate to get some to transplant well.  I captured the flower while it was in a lovely ball state.  The flower doesn't last long unfortunately and it has a fairly strong smell while blooming.  It blooms June through August.  This photo has some great bokeh too and bokeh is great any day!

    1. Thanks Jim! I hope so but we are supposed to be in the 70s on Sunday and then chance for snow on Thursday. Sigh.
