Today's image is one I took last year and just recently found. It is of a wildflower that is beginning to bloom now called False Indigo or Blue Wild Indigo. It normally blooms in May but mine was blooming in April already this year due to some abnormally warm weather. I was able to capture this bee with a colorful pollen pouch enjoying it.
The Blue Wild Indigo was very prolific this year. It was beautiful to see the blue-ish flowers everywhere in fields along the roads. The butterflies and bees were enjoying it as well. I captured this Bumblebee on it's way to one of the blooms.
It's Wildflower Wednesday here on the Blog! There are so many wildflowers blooming lately that it is hard to choose what to share. I finally decided on this one, Blue False Indigo.or Blue Wild Indigo. It is in the Bean family and blooms in May and June. It is a good year for it in my area right now as it is blooming rather profusely in many areas.
It's Wildflower Wednesday here on the blog! Today's flower is Blue Wild Indigo. It is in the Bean Family and blooms in May and June. It produces seed pods that when mature will rattle in the wind. It can be found growing in rocky soils and along road sides. It is most prevalent in clay soils and limestone areas. I have some growing in a couple of my gardens but for this particular photo, I found this on a road side. It's another flower named as "blue" but I have observed it to be more purple than blue.
It's Wildflower Wednesday here on the Blog! I have another beauty for today. This is a group of Blue Wild Indigo or False Indigo that was growing alongside the road where I live. I have a plant of this as well in my garden. Wish the blooms lasted longer than they do. They bloom in May and June typically.
It's Wildflower Wednesday on the Blog. The Blue Wild Indigo is in bloom in the area. Looks beautiful popping above the grass everywhere.
