Almost all these plants are blooming in the front yard only, since the back yard has many fewer ground layer plants due to chicken conflicts. I'll mark plants in bloom in both front and back yard with a *.
September 17:
- Calendula *
- Arugula
- Serviceberries in pots (presumably they bloom now simply because I potted them up into larger pots; the plants in the ground bloomed way back in spring when they're supposed to!)
- Yarrow *
- Foxglove
- Lavendar
- Garden Strawberry
- Alpine strawberry
- Bowle's Black violet *
- Weedy mallow (Malva neglecta?) *

Our fall blooming aster are going crazy, as is our Goldenrod. They are both known for being favorite late nectar flows for bees. The goldenrod makes excellent honey.
