Lion's foot #nabalusalbus and a bumblebee #bombus in my part-shade garden. Grown by winter sowing from #PrairieMoon seeds in the 21/22 winter. August 2025 it finally bloomed🩷

Season 2 of my backyard mini-meadow introduces some new characters, Lanceleaf Coreopsis has asserted itself boldly and is starting to flower, and I see some other new varieties of wildflowers and grasses making the scene, hooray! #PrairieMoon
I grew Purple Giant Hyssop from #PrairieMoon seeds two years ago & it bloomed last year. Great in part sun, but wasn't super showy or insect magnetizing. It is supposed to have high nectar content🌱 I probably need more than one.

My downy wood mint bloomed this past summer, and it was a pollinator magnet🧲 I grew it from #PrairieMoon seeds the previous year and planted them in multiple part-sun areas around the yard🐝 What a fantastic, versatile, and bee-loving native🌱
