Wildflowers of summer (1)

A few weeks ago I created a number of posts to display the wildflowers that bloom in a Montana Spring. Spring has become summer, and new species have begun to bloom. I will begin now to catalog as many as I can as the wildflowers of summer.

Yellow Sweet-clover ~ Melilotus officinalis 6/20

Viper’s Bugloss ~ Echium vulgare 6/20

Fleabane 6/20

Narrow-leaved Collomia ~ Collomia linearis 6/20

Mallow Ninebark ~ Physocarpus malvaceus 6/20

I prefer “Daisy”.

Cut-leaved Daisy, Erigeron compositus

I’ve seen these frequently called “Fleabane” or “Fernleaf Fleabane”. That seems a bit mean: in my opinion they are much prettier than that!
