Love-sick Knights, Forget-Me-Nots and More
According to one legend, a brave young knight was questing about, looking for dragons to slay and Black Knights to smote ... then he saw her, a beautiful maiden. Leaping from the back of his steed, the knight stumbled towards a stream’s edge where he did wrap his gauntlet-clad hand around a bunch of beautiful blue flowers; a gift for the comely young maiden. But alas, drunk on love and carelessly so, the knight tumbled mightily into the water. He sank with a sickening zeal, but not before throwing the flowers toward the maiden and proclaiming, “Forget me not!”

Plant Families: Bignoniaceae and Boraginaceae
Bright colors, aggressive vines and five o’clock shadows hold sway this week. Reds, oranges, yellows, blues and purples all blossom and bloom, decorating the landscape with festive abandon. Coiled tendrils unwind, grasping onto absolutely everything they fall across. Plants, hairier than my Uncle Paul, wear their flowers like gaudy costume jewelry. Many of these wildflowers, if not well known, are certainly recognizable by sight. Some even turn up in the garden. So what are these, these hirsute plants, these plants that won’t let go, these plants that flash us with bold colors, bugger the trench coat?
