Pearly Everlasting by Erik W. L. Anderson
Cook County, Minnesota - September 2000
| Wildflowers September 6, 2000 Found blooming in Cook county by Lorraine Anderson - lorraine@bwca.cc (I would like to her from you who are reading these reports) Roads traveled: #61, Caribou Trail, Ward Lake Road, Deeryard Road, public landing road. Even though there has been no frost yet there are not many wildflowers along the roadside - however the leaves are beginning to turn. Flowers seen: tansy (Tanacetum vulgare) mayweed (Anthemis cotula) creeping bellflower (Campanula rapunculoides) goldenrod (Solidago) butter-and-eggs, toadflax (Linaria vulgaris) aster - purple, white (Aster) black-eyed-susan (Rudbeckia hirta) mullien (Verbascum thapsus) pearly everlasting (Anaphalis margaritacea) bull thistle (Cirsium vulgare) buttercup, common (Ranunculus acris) Evening Primrose (Oenothera biennis) clover, red (Trifolium pratense) sow thistle (Sonchus) We also found some large seedheads that will probably be nice in dry arrangements. We hadn't seen it before. It looked to us like it was probably Valerian. We hope to remember to go back next year when it's blooming to see if we are right!
