Flower walking

Lilacs are blooming everywhere, and while I’ve always loved lilac, they seem too civilized, predictable, tame. Here’s some more interesting flowers that caught my eye lately.

I’m very happy to have this photo of blue-eyed grass. I spotted it next to a rock in the herb border. The blue is so beautiful and the stems are so oddly flat. The next day the blooms were dried up.

This is blooming all along the roadsides. My PlantSnap app identifies it as American beech. But I’m skeptical about that. Will keep an eye on it.

Finally the lovely iris blooming in the field.
