It is a troublesome weed here, so these days I admire it when I see it on the roadside. Such a lovely shade of blue.A Wandering Botanisthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06862965150731361253noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7577407817580433311.post-62500944084558242982018-07-29T19:02:18.296-07:002018-07-29T19:02:18.296-07:00I think you would like my yard.

The chickory, I think a kind of spirit friend, if you'll pardon that, made a straight fence on its own because it must have overheard me bemoaning a new adjacent development. Of course, when not in bloom, it the chicory has a definite 'Day of the Triffids' look about it, so one way or another, imposing. I will taste some salsify tomorrow. I had not known. No pesticides are used, so I look forward to a nibble of flower or stem.
