blazing star & butterflies
As I walked through a garden at Maudslay State Park this afternoon a patch of flowers caught my eye. The bright purple color of the blazing star flower attracted both butterflies & bees.

what's in a name?
I always thought flowers wearing the name black eyed susan had a black center. Funny, this flower with a light colored center identifies as the Prairie Sun version of the black eyed susan.
It's a beautiful flower.

poppy, open
While there are still poppies in bloom, most are close to end of life.
This one, wearing pink, has started dropping petals.

late bloom
The last of the iris are in bloom.
Japanese iris (or iris ensata) have a flatter shape than the iris I see earlier in the season. I think they are all beautiful.
