New York City wildflowers, #3

Clover, close-up

At last I know one: The lower, pinkish one is clover. I’m guessing the one on top is a daisy, but I’m not sure. This time I scanned at a higher resolution, and in the close-up of the daisy, you can see aphids clinging to the stem.

Update: By consensus (see comments), the upper photos are of daisy fleabane.

New York City wildflowers, #2

Spiderwort, Brooklyn, NY

Microdaisies-600

White snakeroot, Brooklyn

Picked on this morning’s dog walk. I don’t know the names of any of them (help me out here, Internet). Notice the free spider beetle that came with flower #3.

Update: Sarah Blackwood reports that the first photo here is of spiderwort. 

Pamela Leo reports that the third photo here is white snakeroot.
