Fireweed...grows wild all over Alaska. So called because it's one of the early plants to appear after a wild fire. The flowers can be harvested for use in nectars and jams and such. The locals watch it as a sign for impending winter when it finishes blooming.

My neighbor's Norway Maples (invasive species) deposited more seeds this year than in the previous 5 years. Rather than trying to pull them in the lawn, I spray a selective herbicide. In the flower beds and veggie garden, I use a long digging tool to get them out. Sculpture of the Sardona Dance in Mirador Park, Barcelona.

Gazania, I've been enjoying seeing them in my yard too. They ate the milkweed down to sticks and now are on the butterfly weed. The only time I have seen the chrysalis is when I kept one in a vase. Maybe I posted the chrysalis before (sorry if it's a duplicate).

Looking back, the road does not look like it is as hilly, as it felt, coming to the top of the hill.
