Scotch Broom is considered an invasive plant in some states — in our yard it is a beloved show of spring’s arrival. We thank Britt Averine for suggesting and then planting these on our hillside a number of years ago.
A close-up look at the buttercup-like blossoms.
Britt also planted some creeping phlox to help control hillside erosion. We love this too.
Nature reveals some of its DNA in our mountains.
I LOVE creeping phlox … But, by the time it’s ready to blossom, it’s been munched by squirrels and bunnies … Sigh … A problem of having it near the bird feeders … Loved the pic of the scotch boom, too …
Brimley loves all things creeping phlox…jumping into, hiding in, eating!
