Roadside Weeds

[urbpan]

I encountered some colorful roadside weeds on my commute this morning.



Beach Rose Rosa rugosa


The fruit of Rosa rugosa: edible rose hips.

(With all these plant sex organs, this is kind of a weed porn post.)


Chicory, Cichorium intybus one of my all time favorite colors found in nature.


Butter-and-eggs, or (more fun to say) Toadflax. Linaria vulgaris


Queen Anne's Lace Dauca carota


Wild Carrot Dauca carota


Bird's Nest Dauca carota


All this holding still and taking photographs caused a dragonfly to land on me.


Once more, without the unsightly creature.


Blog-reader's corner! Identify this weed (I don't have my field guide handy).

Goldenrod Solidago sp. (what it really looks like)

Next: mullein mullein mullein!
