    1. Jewel weed is a beautiful plant!

14. Your woods are a perfect setting for these jewels!

    1. Jewel weed loves being by the edge of the woods.

15. I’m not familiar with this plant, and had to do some research. I think we’re talking about Jewelweed, aka Touch-Me-Not, medicinal uses and hummingbird-friendly? Fascinating stuff.

    1. Yes, jewel weed. And hummingbirds absolutely love it. It self seeds by the edge of the woods.

16. I love the way the seedpods pop and fling their seeds. I have also used jewel weed to treat poison ivy.

    1. Never heard that jewel weed can be used to treat poison ivy. What a remarkable plant!

       1. I remember orange jewelweed fondly. I grew up on the edge of a swamp, and there was a lot of it growing on the border between swamp and yard where it sloped down to the swamp. It does indeed work on poison ivy.

       2. Such a sweet little flower. The hummingbirds love it.
