I thought I’d write about ironweed. I mean, look, I have this really nice photo of ironweed and sunflowers from an Indiana prairie; it captures the essence of the late-summer blooming season, the royal King Arthur kind of purple against the golden sunny glow of the sunflowers. It’s Mother Nature gardening with an artist’s flair. The problem is, I’m not sure I have a lot to say about ironweed.
