A few years ago I had three amazing coneflower plants in the backyard. For the last two summers only one has come back and it ain't lookin' so good. I miss them because they were big and beautiful and they attracted lots of butterflies. Anyway, a lot of the coneflowers around the neighborhood are looking way past their peak and are just looking a bit tired.
The top photo shows my sad looking coneflower plant that's tried hard the past couple summers but just never quite made it to its former glory. The bottom photo shows a coneflower plant growing on a neighbor's blooming boulevard. They just don't look as perky when you get to this time of August.
