I guess that is a little east for me. I live in the high desert north of Palm Springs. Doesn't grow around here. Pretty though. We didn't get enough rain for wildflowers this year.
I spent most of my life in southern New Mexico, and I didn't know what this was. We had no water, though, so maybe that's why I wasn't familiar with it. Cool to feature a video for a change!
This was a new one to me--so pretty! It reminded me a little of one of my favorites in Arizona, the Baja Fairy Duster, but it has red blooms.
Wish you could have come to Asheville, too, Kate--maybe one of these years we'll get to meet up! Did I miss your daughter's wedding or is the big event still coming up?
It's Apache Plume and it is spectacular grown as a large mass. Now, if I could only find Fendlerbush for my yard... Sometimes they grow together. I know only one place in north central NM where one is and a couple of locations in SW CO
Only because I fell in love with them at my MIL's in Albuquerque: Apache Plume! Grows fairly well on the crunchy west hill at my place, too.

Your little girl mischievous laughter cracked me up. :)
ReplyDeleteThat lovely shrub is Apache Plume.
Have a great day!

Oh that's funny - I thought it looked similar to Apache Plume (one of my favs), but the ones I've seen were whiter.
ReplyDeleteI've never seen them before. Pretty!
ReplyDeleteI played too. Mine are here and here.
Never would have guessed since I'm out here in the Midwest where we don't see wildflowers like these. Fun post! ;)
ReplyDeleteFun! (How did you talk the crickets into chirping for your video?)
ReplyDeleteHere's my
Wordless Wednesday. I hope you will stop by!
I have no idea, but it is very pretty!
ReplyDeleteI agree with Deb. Apache Plume is my guess. Love that mysterious laughter.
ReplyDeleteOh, you gals are toooo smart! It is, indeed, Apache Plum. (I thought it was a tough one but apparently not!)
