Weeds are just plants someone thinks are out of place. As the season arrives, we can all get some pleasure from these signs of a diverse ecosystem in your yard. Take the time to look down and closely!

Do you know the name of the small blue flowers? I have been trying to ID them without much luck.

They are simply bluets – “Houstonia caerulea” a wonderful stand of them comes out at Smallwood and Clarke near Edna Metz – very common. Thanks for the inquiry and sorry it took a ridiculous time to respond.
