I took some shots of my mostly native, naturalistic landscape just some 30 miles west of Philadelphia on the 4th of July, when most of my perennials are beginning to bloom. The first two photos in the front yard show lots of Purple Coneflowers. The next three are in the backyard with my prairie style garden with pink blooming Queen-of-the-Prairie, Rattlesnake Master forming scapes with small rounded flowers that will soon bloom white, and white blooming Culver's-Root (Veronicastrum) that is like a tall Veronca or Speedwell. Little Bluestem grass will send up its flowering grass scapes soon as will the Big Bluestem grass and Switchgrass. Serviceberry, Spicebush, Summersweet, a Gray Birch are behind the perennials.
