The showy bright yellow flowers of the elecampane have nearly finished this summer. For about three weeks, the ten foot displays have attracted bumble bees, honey bees, butterflies and other useful critters.
Come winter, when the birds are getting hungry, they will feast on the dried seed heads. The remaining parts of the plant will decay and feed back into the soil. Nothing is wasted in nature, and nothing is created which can’t add back to the whole.
