Gentleman Farmer was cutting some firewood at the top of our property and had asked if I would bring him some cold water to drink. After I brought him a jug of water and a cup, I was looking around to see if there were any little wild black berries ripe for picking. I didn't find any, but I did discover several of these dainty little plants growing out of the rock of an old road bed. I borrowed GF's shovel and a bucket and dug up several in hopes that they might like growing in the dry flower bed in front of the barn. I planted them immediately to give them every opportunity to survive their change of venue.

Do you have any idea what this little wild flower might be?

ReplyDeleteI think that is Deptford Pink, Dianthus armeria. It grows up to 2 feet.
ReplyDeleteIt could also be Phlox(pink) with the yellow center which grows to 20 inches.
