The orderly march of wildflowers is skewed. Today I saw a patch of Indian blankets growing by the side of the road. It seems to me that they are usually the last to show up. There is another one that I am calling a globe amaranth. It is a red ball at this point in time. It usually comes later also.
There are also a lot of milkweed showing up.
They say we are in a ten year drought. It could be that late bloomers are grabbing all the moisture they can.
