Bumper crop year for Goldenrod
Sep 26, 2013 15:15:35 #
This fall has brought out a surfeit of goldenrod in mid-NC; it's everywhere you look, and in great profusion. A friend of mine at the NC State Agriculture department said the goldenrod population is very healthy this year. Yellow is not my favorite color in a flower, nor is any weed that makes me sneeze, but these guys have such beautiful shapes I can't resist them .... they remind me of a classical bonsai form.

Nice image, guy. Should lead to lots of butterflies later, yes?

So far it's the bumblebees that seem to swarming the blossoms.

My nemesis, very pretty, but not my friend. But that is a great shot of it.
