Broom Snakeweed

We’ve been planting a lot of plants in our yard, trying to get the area around our house looking better while still keeping it somewhat natural. One of the plants that volunteered was this broom snakeweed, which is pretty while it’s flowering. And it seems to hold some of the more noxious things that grow around here at bay.

The only problem with it is that like so many of the other things growing around here, its flowers are yellow. Glad we’ve got a bunch of tahoka daisies with some purple at the moment.

Another one for the “it’s pretty, don’t kill it” file.
