Highwood Drive, Year Four

A young native garden was left largely to do its own thing during the fourth year, October 2024-2025, living on Baltimore’s Highwood Drive. Sorting through snapped images for this year’s photo essay served as a reminder of how much time since January 20th has been redirected into political activism. So pardon the weeds.

Here July coneflowers and spirea are in flower while the rounded aster and spiring Muhly grass will come into their own in late summer, early fall.
