Plant of the Day
Sunday 16 June 2024
Purple foliaged shrubs need to be used with care in designed landscapes as when viewed from a distance they can appear as dark holes in the border. Here Physocarpus opulifolius 'Diabolo' (ninebark) was part of a skilful plant association of greens and purples in a partial shaded border.

Despite its small size, Valley Falls State Park is a real treasure. Most people who visit the park come for the falls on the Tygart Valley River and completely ignore the beautiful trails. The Rhododendron and Glady Creek Trails wind through some lovely old cove forest anchored by impressive boulder fields smothered in moss. It has that LOTR thing going, especially along some of the more secluded sections of Glady Creek, culminating in an enchanting, multi-tiered waterfall draped in rhododendron. This time of the year, the mountain laurel (Kalmia latifolia) and ninebark (Physocarpus opulifolius) are in bloom (I can't decide which is lovelier) and the fungi and ferns dominate the forest floor, now that the canopy has closed over. The American royal fern (Osmunda spectabilis), which grows in the nooks and crannies of the giant boulders at the edge of the river, is a personal favorite of mine.

#2203 - Gomphocarpus physocarpus - Balloonplant
AKA as balloon cotton-bush, swan plant, and nailhead. Two other common names are Hairy Balls and Bishop's Balls. Guess why.
It and the closely related Narrow-leaf Cotton Bush Gomphocarpus fruticosus are native to South Africa, but are now long-established weeds in Australa and New Zealand, where they are important hostplants for the Monarch or Wanderer Butterfly Danaus plexippus. Note the young caterpillar on one of the flowers in the first photo.
