September Blooms

September continued dry - the dryest on record. The prairie plants did well, and it was the year of the ageratum, everywhere.

This vivid beauty is a bottle gentian.
I planted it several years ago, and haven't seen it recently.

This blue thing was planted by my landscaper
the first year I was here, 20+ years ago, and
continues to do well.

A good year for drought-tolerant goldenrood.

Woodland aster, spreading happily.
