    Niiiiiice!

    We have a flower similar to this in the garden and it's a major attraction to all kinds of insects.     Posted 5 years ago

      This flower is one of the most common here in the South (maybe up north as well?). Most people consider it a weed, but I think it is quite beautiful. It's also edible (wild carrot)! It's definitely a pollinator favorite! Posted 5 years ago
