Warm memories

Warm memories (silphium perfoliatum)

It's very cold and windy here today, having record breaking lows. Needed a reminder of warmer more pleasant times. This is a very popular plant with the wildlife. I see this one has attracted a bee, wasp and a butterfly. Common name is Cup plant.
