I’ll contradict the botanist 😉
The coneflower I think is a helinium (bumpy petals), the next is verbena, the next a monarda (?), anemone, then a physostegia (lupines not blooming now) , then lastly the purple bell I agree is a platycodon.
Thanks for taking the time to do this for me :-). I will correct this as soon as I fix my hard drive issue. no computer for a little bit. I know how to fix it.
wonderful park gallery and history. I hope you can use some of your posts as magazine articles! So informative with local history. Sorry I will be a bit behind in responses this next while but thank you for sharing your tours!!
Hi Sherry! I asked a friend who has worked at the Philly Botanical Gardens and, off the top of her head, she said flower #6, purple, is a Lupine and #9, the purple bell shaped flower is a Platycodon or Chinese Bellflower. Hope this helps. Love, Cathy
