This is the first year I have noticed Rough Blazing Star (Liatris ligulistylis) in bloom on a nearby road.
I think the small grain field behind the flowers is oats. It is a comforting shade of blue/green.
The late evening light makes everything glow on the edge of this old horse pasture now planted with oats. Changes happen so quickly.
I have some planted in my wild gardens too.
Mine is Prairie Blazing Star (Liatris pycnostachya).
Chance always looks better with flowers:)

Morning, beautiful Blazing Star, mine never does well.....Chance looks great in the flowers, Blessings Francine.
Those are such pretty flowers. Chance looks very nice sitting amidst the flowers.
These are pretty flowers, all right, but they don't hold a candle to Chance. :-)
Thanks for identifying that - I've wondered what the beautiful purple spikes planted in the median of our town are - now I know!
Chance looks beautiful no matter where!
What do you mean Chance looks better with flowers - it is that handsome Chance making the flowers look better. I love that dog!
Chance always looks good, with or without flowers :-D.
Laffs. I agree with Rae!!
Yes, Chance does brighten up around floral. Love it and your great pics, Connie!

Beautiful wild flowers.

Chance always looks good! Flowers or not...
...but the flowers look beautiful, too--especially that shot of your own :)
I just remembered all that snow from this last winter - Minnesnowda! And now look at all that beauty!
Nice spiky flowers.
Very pretty flowers, Connie. Last year the hummingbirds loved everything purple. :-)
Such pretty flowers! And I think you mean flowers always look better with Chance? ;-)
I love Chance, with or without flowers!!!

Chance is a beautiful dog anywhere, but I do think purple is his color! :)
Chance looks handsome with or without flowers.
They are a lovely color! :)
