Saw some of these yesterday morning, not a very good pic. I believe they're Painted Ladies, on White Mistflower. These mistflowers bloomed late, so they haven't even reached full bloom yet, but they sure look nice and are really drawing in some butterflies...still only a fraction of what they would normally get in fall and that's really disappointing! The Frostweed blooms are late also and only a fraction of what we would normally have. While driving to the city and back yesterday, I saw a few Monarchs flying by. Peak migration time is over, but at least a few are flying south through this area.
