Scenes from the Ranch: June 12, 2023

Wildflowers are in the spotlight for this week’s Scenes from the Ranch:

On a short jaunt from the house this morning I found White Beardtongue. Note the two petals up and three down that is characteristic of the penstemon genus.

Thread-leaf Phacelia with it’s delightful pink-purple blossoms

Scarlet Gaura (also known as Beeblossom) a member of the evening primrose family. There is yellow sweet clover in the background, and plenty of it everywhere this spring!

The June moisture and 70-degree days have felt perfect. It is great front porch weather, something all creatures seem to agree upon!

I live in Montana with my husband Bart. I enjoy taking care of the animals on the ranch and exploring the prairie with my dogs, my binoculars, and a reverence for the natural world.

  1. You have eyes for the beautiful there. The fragile flowers set against the ruggedness of the land is striking. Thank you for letting me see all this through your eyes. Love, Aunt Barbara
