End of July 2022

Still very dry, the native plants are doing great. I have gotten to over 350 species observed.

The main thing blooming in the prairie right now is Cup plant, with a few spotted bee balms. Need to close the obvious gap I have in flowering forbs from late June to when the fall flowers start.

377 species documented.

Finally have gotten some rain, over 3 inches the last few days. The creek in the back is full again. Have noticed an uptick in larger butterflies this month, with Gulf Friliary being the primary, but also viceroy, swallowtails (Giant, pipevine, eastern). Smaller skippers are abundant also.

Starting to see boneset, maximillia sunflowers and ironweed bloom. Still feel like there is a gap in bloom during late summer.

Bidens and goldenrod are not far off from blooming.
