Oh, what absolute loveliness! When we had our cabin in Fancy Gap, these beauties grew all along the roads in the ditches! I am waiting for the milkweed to bloom so I can go shoot me some butterflies...with my camera, of course :) Have a great week!
So nice to see wild pholox after seeing the invasive lookalike (Dames Rocket) taking over the roadsides and powerline right of way back home in Clarke/Fauquier counties back home this weekend. Lovely!
Oh, but I think it IS Dames Rocket! I looked it up in my wildflower book and I'm pretty sure it's Dames Rocket. But, some say we have wild phlox here, blooming later in the season. We'll see!
