Are you some kind of hypnotist?

This variety of nicotiana (flower tobacco) has giant sticky leaves and very sweet smelling, very long flowers. The scent is so powerful that you can smell it wafting through the air. It's a great plant and a great smell.

It's late summer and most of the flowers are finishing up, but these fall asters are just starting to come on.

A nice little abutilon with a pink flower. I grew this one from seed.

This looks like phlox to me. Growing near the tree from the previous picture, this plant was all along my drive today.

On top of Dutchman's Peak, I want to say this wildflower is Indian Paintbrush, but I think I'm wrong on that one. Anyway, I liked it.

This little arraingement of wildflowers reminded me of a small rock garden.

Very near the plant with the white ball flower, were a few wild iris. I was very excited to see this and took several photos. This is the best.
The iris barely rises above the ground and the leaves are only 6 inches tall at best.

I have no idea what these are, but at oine point along the road they were all over. The leaves are pretty tall, heavy and sort of grassy. This flower spike shoots out of the middle of the plant and then blooms into this white ball. The plant smells, and while it's not repulsive, it's certainly not "nice."

These are the smallest lupines I've ever seen. I pulled into a wide spot in the road about halfway to Dutchman's Peak and spotted a whole bunch of them growing. They are barely 2 inches tall.
You can see my car in the background.

It should get an A for effort.
