Nature's Garden

[LouisFerdinand]

I especially like the photo of the Wild Geranium. Its pastel purple coloring is perfect for Easter.

This is an exceptionally fine thread, with many beautiful wildflower photos.

The flower listed as 'unknown' on a post on Page 3 is Creeping Jacob's Ladder (Polemonium reptans), a beautiful, blue-flowered perennial native to eastern and central North America.

I decided to create this post as a way to share images of plants that grow in the wild. I'm a huge fan of the great outdoors, I get outside all the time and I often photograph the plants I see. Mother Nature is who I look up to as a gardener. Not only is she an expert gardener, but she's an expert plant designer, too. Humans frequently try to edit her work, but what she's created can never be topped. I hope you all participate along with me when you get the chance, and help me keep this thread going to show all of Mother Nature's work. Please share your photos of nature's garden if you have them. If you don't, head outdoors with a camera and take some photos!

I'll start by sharing a few of the plants I've come across in the past week.

I'm not completely sure, I believe this is some kind of wild sunflower.

Those are so cool! Where were these taken? The closest things we have near my home area are the wildflowers in flagstaff. https://www.flagstaff.az.gov/Docume...Z-Native-Perennials_2017-Master-Gardner-Class
