It was as tall but not so round. I've seen them all over town too. I love all the wildflowers to be found this time of year! The butterflies are loving them too.Cathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03872899189875117518noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7527178868601047846.post-31267305314194355482010-10-27T20:29:06.481-05:002010-10-27T20:29:06.481-05:00Is your picture a close up of this white flowering...Is your picture a close up of this white flowering shrub? http://flic.kr/p/8NCM25 I've seen it blooming in abandoned areas all over town, but I can't ID it.Abbey Forneyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14866614408026320025noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7527178868601047846.post-71408238223919075312010-10-27T09:00:36.739-05:002010-10-27T09:00:36.739-05:00Hello Commonweeder!

I think they are able to grow a lot more tropical plants than we are. Also, I think they may have more acidic soils so grow a lot of acid loving trees and plants. Thanks for stopping by and I appreciate your comment! <br /><br />Hello Carol - yes, absolutely have been captivated by their antics in the yellow flowers I posted about the other day! In fact, I was able to capture a couple in pictures and will be posting soon on them. As always, I appreciate your continued comments and encouragement - thank you!Cathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03872899189875117518noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7527178868601047846.post-5842365397610741062010-10-27T08:04:38.282-05:002010-10-27T08:04:38.282-05:00Lovely golden light!
