| Eastern Gammagrass (Tripsacum dactyloides) |
How exciting it is to see perennials emerging in the Creek Field!
Eastern Gammagrass may have sent up leaves last year, but it didn't bloom. This year it bloomed by the dozens!
Sawtooth Sunflower bloomed last year but the season was almost over before I learned to tell it apart from other sunflowers. This year I'm doing better, learning to spot the tell-tale details of leaf & bract. Now it leaps out at me, even from afar: A kind of windblown appearance (as pictured in the photo below), even on a still day, as if always caught in a high wind.
