No Mow May 18... by marlboromaam

No Mow May 18...

Okay ladies, move in for your closeup. That's it. Hold it right there! Ha ha! Hairy Cat's Ear blooms. Why the common name of Hairy Cat's-Ear? Because the leaves are hairy and the tips are shaped like a kitty cat's ear. More info here - http://namethatplant.net/plantdetail.shtml?plant=731

We're more than halfway through No Mow May and I've seen some wonderful captures of grasses, weeds, wildflowers and pollinators... But I'd love to see more and surpass last year's collection!!! I know I don't want to be in the fields trying to pollinate fruits and veggies with a feather. Do you?
This is really pretty, Mags.

This is a fabulous composition! They look so much like Dandelions! I may be confused :-)

@corinnec Thank you very much, Corinne! The easiest way to tell is by the stem... Dandelions have hollow stems and it's a single bloom on one stem. These have dark green solid stems and can support many more blooms on one stem. Unconfused?

@corinnec Also, the leaves are very small and lay on the ground. Dandelion leaves are large and stand up around the blooms.

@marlboromaam I'm impressed. Yes, it's very clear now.
