  3. I see many plants like this here in England, most as by the road side or hedgerows, I can not tell the differance as the flower heads as so similar... one or two smell beautiful..

  5. This is plant I love to see when I'm in an area where thay grow = not my part of California, unfortunately. Your photo is lovely - as queen-size funny bone says - like a summer snowflake.

  7. One of my favorite wildflowers! I grew up picking it in New Hampshire, but alas, it does not grow in Spokane.

To live in the presence of great truths and eternal laws, to be led by permanent ideals--that is what keeps a man patient when the world ignores him, and calm & unspoiled when the world praises him.
