Hobblebush is now setting seed. That was fast. Pierce Road, #Harvard #Forest.

Spiny new growth on Devil’s Club - don’t touch. (Oplopanax horridus)

Hobblebush is now in full flower. The flowers are being enjoyed by two #pollinators.

I loved this scenic view in Capitol Reef National Park because of all the layers of flora and rock formations from a foreground of shrubs and grasses to distant background red rock cliffs. The scene shows the rugged beauty of the desert environment.

This is one of my favourite plants. There was once a time when it was so common in gardens that it was viewed with snobbery. Too easy to grow. Too bright.

It is Kerria. I hardly ever see it now. I grow it in what passes for a tiny woodland clearing.

When first planted, the crows reacted furiously to the flowers and did a wrecking job. I have no idea what was going on in their heads.

Fall colors from the scrublands outside of Yakima, Washington. The brightest colors were in a narrow band following a creek bed.

Enough of the unseasonal plants! Here's one that's doing what it is supposed to when it's supposed to - Cotinus Royal Purple - only it's turning orange.

I like these Northern Wild Raisin bushes (Viburnum cassionides).
I took those few already blue berries home to plant in the garden though I bet our Chipmunk will find them. He always does.

Our hedge has been fine for many years and for the first 18yrs I called it indestructible too, as this article attests, that is its nature.

The last few years it's been defying the claim of durability and we're getting spontaneous mid-summer dying of a stem at a time, really decimating our hedge.

Not much info on line about #caragana afflictions. Powder mildew and pests don't seem to be involved. Good moisture, and drainage.
