Last night I...Hi Miss Kitty,<BR/>Timing, timing, timing. Last night I had this sudden urge to put up this photo even though I'd been working on a totally different blog post. Between your comment and the ones below about the echinacea study, now I know why! : ) I bet echinacea would do great in your yard.<BR/><BR/>Hi Britt-Arnhild,<BR/>Thank you. One of these days I really hope to get around to having some cards, prints, etc. of my photos made up, as people are often asking if they can buy them. One of these days, LOL.<BR/><BR/>Hi Pattie,<BR/>What a beautiful description of echinacea. They really are lovely flowers--even when they're barely open. And of course the butterflies and moths and other pollinators go crazy over them.<BR/><BR/>Hi Linda Sue,<BR/>Indestructible Faves List--I love it. That's my kind of flower gardening, LOL. Echinacea grows wild around here too--in glorious patches on the side of the highways in what often looks like rock. You need to collect some wild seeds and scatter those in your garden. : )<BR/><BR/>Now if only all the weeds in my garden looked this good!<BR/><BR/>Hi Sheoflittlebrain (that name cracks me up),<BR/>Wild peccary/Javalina? I'm going to have to look that up. While I completely empathize with you, it's always nice to hear that there's a crazy predator/pest we don't have here! I didn't think any critters besides tomato hornworms (ugh) ate tomato plants (in fact I had it in my head the leaves are poisonous), but I learned differently this past spring. I've been having terrible trouble with what I'm almost positive is a packrat that moved into my greenhouse for the winter--it, or something else, ate a bunch of my tomato seedlings I hadn't transplanted yet down to nothing! I couldn't believe it.<BR/><BR/>So is Javalina edible? : )<BR/><BR/>Hi Michelle,<BR/>Thanks so much. Making some large prints available for sale has long been on my You Really Need To Do This List--but it never seems to reach the top! Thanks for the reminder. : )<BR/><BR/>Hi Jeanne,<BR/>Thank you!<BR/><BR/>Hi Eddybles,<BR/>Yay! Positive, conclusive news about echinacea. Like I said to Miss Kitty above, I just had this sudden urge to put up this photo last night. : )<BR/><BR/>Hi Robinson,<BR/>Thanks for the link. I'll definitely check it out.<BR/><BR/>Hi B,<BR/>The spooky coincidences between us just keep piling up. Poppies are gorgeous by the way--there are new ones blooming each morning. : )<BR/><BR/>Hi Edward,<BR/>Thanks and congratulations on starting your own blog!Farmgirl Susanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04851855517852917202noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12997259.post-90349842732420945272007-06-27T03:48:00.000-05:002007-06-27T03:48:00.000-05:00Hi..your blog just looks one which is meant to sho...Hi..your blog just looks one which is meant to show something bigger.No wonder it is an award winning one.<BR/><BR/>I loved the picture.Am also intereted in pictures so much that i opened up a similar blog...i hope you will drop and check it out and recommend in case you have time...i will be dropping on yours from now..Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12997259.post-62945418755569943792007-06-26T15:09:00.000-05:002007-06-26T15:09:00.000-05:00I was thinking the same, the UK press also picked ...I was thinking the same, the UK press also picked up on the echinacea research piece yesterday and it made me recall your butterfly shots from last year.
