Last gasp of summer

I was out over the weekend and noticed a few blooms left on a couple of the Scrub Blazing Star, but they've pretty much gone to seed. So have the other Liatris in the scrub. However, the Liatris tennufolia in the sandhill sections are just beginning to bloom. The same goes for the Carphephorus and a few other wildflowers.

I was pleased to see Dalea pinnata in the western side of the preserve. I've never seen it there before, only on the eastern corner near the Clitoria fragrans sandhill area. Very interesting.
