Weeds to Wildflowers

When I see them in my garden, they are weeds to be pulled up immediately, so scorned that they can’t even be added to the compost pile.  Yet , early in the day in the meadow at Wagon Hill, with the dew still glistening on them, those same weeds turn into wildflowers.  Here are some pictures of these Cinderella flowers.   And, as a floral designer, I am just as happy with a vase full of milkweed as I am the most beautiful orchid stem.
