Echinacea Purple Cone Flowers
Native to the prairies here in iowa, I love seeing cone flowers making their way across landscapes of all types around the United States. It’s truly a plant that’s helpful to pollinators, small mammals, and humans alike. Chewing on an echinacea leaf will make your tongue go numb, and one of the ways to know if your echinacea tea or tincture is still good is if it has that numbing effect. Here’s a little PSA about echinacea: did you know echinacea can interfere with all kinds of medications including birth control? Its always good to check counter-indications of your favorite cold care tea with any meds you might be on.

These en plein air field studies in natural ink and gouache capture the vitality and beauty of even the humblest plant. Native, naturalized, and invasive plants are all captured equally as they appear in my yard throughout the seasons.
