The No Mow Star

The Lemon Bee Balm wildflower is by far the most prevalent wildflower after all of our rain. I would love to know how it got it’s name!

@grammyn @joansmor @carole_sandford @gardenfolk @olivetreeann @jgpittenger @ludwigsdiana @happysnaps @pcoulson @sangwann thank you all so much. Between no mow and the fact that we are experiencing the 2nd wettest year we have ever had, the wildflowers have outdone themselves! Dallas has had 35” of rain so far this year. Most of our lakes are completely full, we will be very thankful for that during our hot summer months when we will need the water.

We have some bee balm in our garden but the flower is quite different in structure and color

@louannwarren 35” is a lot of rain! Wow!

[Diane]
