Watery Wednesday at the Farm
Beautiful flowery plants grow next to the pond at Howell Living History Farm in Mercer County, New Jersey. Can anyone identify these orange or fuchsia wildflowers? Kerry identified the orange ones as jewel weed.
Isn’t this creek welcoming? Three little girls thought so; you can see one in the creek in last week’s post with watercolor effect applied.

Delightful water scenes here! And no! I don't know the name of the flowers, but they are so pretty!
Kerri says
Hi Leora - I think the orange flowers are Jewel Weed. The hummingbirds LOVE it around here.
Not sure what those others are.
Beautiful watery scenes!
Leora says
Kerri, I think you are right; I just Googled "jewel weed" and saw lots of these pretty orange weeds. Good eye.

Beautiful shots. Wish I could help with naming that fuschia colored flower, but I'll just have to enjoy it.
Carver says
I love looking at plants that grow beside water and you shot some beautiful ones here. I also think the orange plant is jewel weed (I noticed someone else answered that one).
