Happy Juneteenth!
While tramping in a desert, I discovered this newly-opened, lovely plant. My phone app calls it a “spreading fleabane.” The phone formally identifies it as an Erigeron divergens, native to western North America, adding that it has highly variable forms. For example, it can produce one-to-multiple stems with over 100 flower heads. It blooms in pinks, yellows, and purples from early spring to late autumn. I’ll watch to see how this baby may grow!
I’m running late on this, yet another early-to-work day.
Dear Friends: What’s good about going in early is getting to leave early. Diana
