Some new bloomers today, all favored by butterflies and bees:
Purple Coneflower.
Bee Balm (Monarda didyma)
Butterfly Weed.
This plant came in as a hitchhiker with some Milkweed from Earth Tones. I believe it is the Purple Giant Hyssop (Agastache scrophulariaefolia - and they wonder why people don't like to use the botanical names), a native plant in Connecticut. It's in the mint family and is aromatic. I have no way of separating from the milkweed, however.
