Spotted these in the historic Minns Garden, outside the Plant Science Building. Am trying to pull a video together about these. Stay tuned.

Weekend pix: Bees on verbascum
My neighbor Lynn finds bee pix boring. But I can’t get enough of them. I love the little orange bundles of pollen they pick up from the verbascum.
Weekend pix: Filipendula, clematis
Filipendula
Because it grows upon a lattice,
Some folks call it cle-MA-tis.
But Noah Webster will moan and piss,
If you don’t call it clem-a-TIS.
Weekend pix: Compost garden, container cluster
I’m often amazed by what springs forth from the compost pile. But this year I have an amazing potato, mustard and tomato crop coming.
Container cluster is coming along despite the cool weather.
Weekend pix: Viburnum plicatum var. tomentosum (Doublefile viburnum)
Viburnum plicatum var. tomentosum (Doublefile viburnum). Can’t say I planned this. But I like the horizontal branching against the vertical Miscanthus floridulus.
