brown 6

Sometimes you have to get up close to appreciate the details. They also illustrate what I was saying yesterday about some plants being too irregular to perform well in a prairie style garden.
Above, Petalostemon purpurea (Purple prairie clover - despite the epithet, I haven't seen it in an Oehme van Sweden style garden ), and below, Brickelia (Brickelbush, which might be considered a weed).
