Skippers enjoying the native asters. They return every year to them.

I just realized I forgot to add the large leafed lupine while it’s flowering. My apologies!

INaturalist Id’d this as Bombus mixtus. On a valerian.

I planted this Inside out flower (Vancouveria hexandra) a few years ago but it’s not blooming much this year. Any suggestions from you out there?

So happy the native honeysuckle bloomed like crazy this year. Rufus and Anna’s hummingbirds loved it, too. Lonicera ciliosa.

Lupinus polyphyllus. Big leaf lupine. I start them from seed and they readily grow in not-so-great soil. Pollinators love the flowers, which I will show later

Sedum spathulifolium, broadleaf stonecrop, likes some shade. Took a few years to spread this far

Dicentra formosa (bleeding heart) looking happy in afternoon shade. A polite spreader

This is Coltsfoot I planted a few years ago. It’s a polite spreader and blooms early but I haven’t seen a lot of insect activity on the blooms. Still, the flowers cheer me.

This enterprising one nabbed a termite off our window. Well done!

INaturalist ID’d this as a pacific chorus frog. Tiny: not more than an inch long.

These red hucks pop up all over our property. Make nice jam but we leave most berries to the birds Foam flower and vanilla leaf in the foreground. All WA native

Coltsfoot is an early bloomer and a nice spreader. Wa native.

I like this WA native: Nodding onion. Bumbles like it, too.

WA Native: five finger fern. Surprisingly hardy, easy to divide, and check out the cool black stems

Was that beaver flipping me off? Can’t blame ‘em - they were here long before I was. I urge people to buy houses already built. Must we really need “new?”
