Wild Bergamot (Monarda fistulosa) is a native #beebalm blooming now. Pollinators, especially bees, love their fountain like blooms.

A little of today's pollinator activity on the native Lanceleaf Coreopsis (Coreopsis lanceolata)
This plant is one of the staples in my wildlife gardens. It does have a peak in early summer but it blossoms into the fall.

Big Blooms, little plant. Missouri Primrose (Oenothera macrocarpa) makes an excellent ground cover or border plant. It likes sun & most soils. Red stems, attractive leaves and those beautiful yellow flowers!! 😍 #missouriprimrose #oenotheramacrocarpa #nativeplants #nativeplantsofnorthamerica

3 feet of loveliness. This is native Foxglove Beardtongue or Penstemon digitalis. Only a 2yr old plant and already so showy. The rest of the year it has an attractive semi-evergreen basal clump of leaves #penstemondigitalis #penstemon #foxglovebeardtongue #nativeflowers #nativeplantsofnorthamerica
