The photograph in that post showed a single basket-flower. In contrast, today's picture includes the densest and most expansive colony of horsemints (Monarda citriodora) I've seen in maybe two decades. I photographed it on May 28th in between US 183 and the 183A toll road in Leander. Unfortunately construction is already under way on parts of the field, so 2023 may mark this great colony's last stand.   © 2023 Steven Schwartzman       Comment Like You can also reply to this email to leave a comment.
