Wildflowers, Seeds Planted in June. 8.22.2020

 This was an area that contained irises.  I didn't want them there, because it is on an easement than can be paved at the whim of the holder.  Instead of just planting grass, I mixed together clover, grass seed, and wildflower seed.  I really didn't expect much, it has been hot and dry.  Even so, they are starting to bloom now.

I think some of these mixes are just extra annual flowers.  I really don't think zinnias, alyssum, cosmos, and bachelors buttons are native wildflowers.  Even so, they are nice.  Pollen and nectar sources are welcome now.
