Sometimes the bumbles don’t wear their brightest furry outfits and the flower steals the picture. At least for me this flower did! Can the purple on that bloom get anymore beautiful?!
Only because the flower is nodding, could it be Caruus nutans? It’s a pretty unmistakable invasive. If you google it, you will probably know right away if it is this or not.
Yes, Carduus nutans.
It is pretty obnoxious, all over the intermountain west now.
Still though, the purple is outstanding and the critters are all over it!
