On the Cusp of Blooming

sSo since I was lazy I missed posts for a lot of my earlier blooms.  I did not get a chance to post pictures of my columbines or penstemon in bloom.  So I am devoted to catching everything else.  A lot of things are flourishing and adjusting to my garden it has been pretty wet so some species aren't doing very well while others are flourishing.  My Echinacea paradoxa and E. pallida are subdued due to the wetness.  A lot of things came up from seed most especially the asters.  I'm careful not to pull things until I know for sure what they are.  I'm catching my garden just before its summer bloom.  I intend to document the blooms as they occur.  Also I will continue to post plants I find in the wild throughout the rest of the summer.  

Various Aster seedlings

Goodyera pubescens

Desmodium canadense

Rubeckia triloba

Rubeckia subtomentosa

Eupitorium perfoliatum

Lobelia siphilitica

Liatris scariosa

Lilium philadelphicum

    I found these growing about 100 yards from Lake Michigan.  I guess they are endangered in some states.  Sorry I have not been updating lately.  I will try to take more pictures as more things start blooming this summer
