The Ferns are done for the season

Guess what this is...

Fall Field Corn

More Color

Ah Fall!

Pampas Grass

I hope the cows stay out of my yard.  The pampas grass loves it here and it is said that cows love it!

The cattails are all over our marsh area.

Cattails

Compass Plants

Even thistles have some good qualities. The bees like their flowers.

White Yarrow

What a delicate wildflower.

Milkweed Bugs?

Does anyone know what kind of bugs these are?  They are all over the milkweed plants.

Black-eyed Susan

Hops are almost ready!

The hops are growing.  Not quite ready yet, but soon!

Coneflowers

These plants really love it around the house.  They multiply and grow everywhere.

Interesting Plant

What is this? 

Ginseng

Ugly, but it grows wild around our property. Every year we have to watch for people coming in and trying to harvest it.   We are afraid that they will ruin it by digging up the whole thing!

Lilies in Bloom

It looks like little slippers

The Hops are on their way

This year my son is going to use them for beer.  These are Cascade Hops.  They love where they are growing.  In almost gravel.  Go figure!

Foxglove

Well.....after checking these out!  I am going to destroy them.  Didn't realize that these yellow flowers were so toxic.  YIKES!

My impatiens have a friend.

I didn't notice it until I looked at the picture.  Do you see him?
