Fall may be on its way but there are still many wildflowers to look for when out walking and cycling. The ubiquitous Fireweed, so called as it is one of the first plants to colonize after a forest fire, seems to enjoy a long blooming season and can still be seen especially in those favourite berry picking areas. The flowers produce excellent nectar - a bonus for our depleting numbers of bees and a good reason to allow it to naturalise if you have the space.
