Pictured are Philadelphia fleabane, colorful little daisy wildflowers that can pop up almost anywhere with little encouragement. I’m very accustomed to little versions of it and was surprised to see these mature tall-stemmed blossoms, strikingly pink, thriving beside a canal.
Here’s a top view of common yarrow, a wildflower with feathery leaves, its flowers may be white, yellow, or pink. It blooms densely as small clusters at the tops of branches. This beautiful plant is adaptable and simple to maintain. It’s been around since time immemorial, and I’ve heard can be used to make tea.

Dear Friends: Another early day leaving for work. I’ll say hi again tomorrow. Diana
