Buchanan School Livonia Habitat....Summer 2014

 Lots of Queen Annes Lace this year

 Queen Anne's Lace as it starts to form seeds.
 Joe Pye Weed and Swamp Milkweed provide lots of food for bees and butterflies and birds
 Above: Boneset...a wonderful native Michigan plant
 Lots of coreopsis this year...
 Blue vervain did very well this year.

So much coreopsis
