September 2004 Scenes from the Prairie Garden Trust

Aster blooming in September.

A "groundbreaking" ceremony at the recent PGT board meeting marked the start of a new home for Joan Domke and future visitor center. Fire in February 2004 burned the entire original house and all its contents. The new building should be completed in December 2004.

Indian grass is increasingly evident in the PGT plantings.

 

Nodding ladies' tresses (Spiranthes cernua) is found in moist areas.
