Iowa Plants: Yellow Goat’s Beard and Deptford Pink

Prairie Rose 007

I really like how they look like giant dandelion puffs. :)

It grows in all states except Hawaii, Mississippi, Alabama, Florida, and South Carolina.

The name for this plant comes from a town (Deptford) in the south of England, which apparently had a lot of them. :)

Prairie Rose 012

Just little-bitty things…

Prairie Rose 010

If you get a close look at one, look for twisting pistils in the center.
