Though we may all look at the same things, it does not all follow that we should see them.” ~ John Lubbock

https://www.fandangotrading.com/fybrzjb Purple coneflowers. One of my favorites. Since it will bloom from June through September, there are usually pockets of these purple beauties in the prairie during any summer visit. My favorite part is the spiny center, that red rusty cone.

  1. https://www.drcarolineedwards.com/2024/09/18/s2cenirxzj2 Purple Coneflower – one of my all-time favorite perennials. I WILL plant some one day but they’ll never be as pretty as those, right there, in that prairie, in that photograph. Swoon.
