The Slenderleaf false foxglove Agalinis tenuifolia. Found east of the Rocky mountains in woodlands, fields. It's another hemi parasitic plant, it does well if planted alongside other plants because it feeds off their roots. The flowers are small around a half inch long and only last for a day or two.

Anticlea elegans the Mountain Death Camas, or the elegant Camas. This poisonous plant is stronger than strychnine.
It's all over the western US and Canada outside of California. It can be mistaken for edible bulbs or onions and it can cause heart rhythm problems and convulsions. So steer clear!

The California poppy, eschscholzia californica. It is the state flower of California and is found in most states, but native to the west coast. It is edible and is used as a food garnish. Despite producing a significant amount of pollen they are not an allergen as the poppies are not wind pollinated.

In other news, new microns are a dream to draw with.

This is a very small plant. Bog rosemary grows in boggy and marshy areas in the cooler parts of the northern hemisphere never getting taller than 25cm. The flowers are tiny too 5-8 mm long. This plant is an evergreen and flowers during May and June. Its numbers are in decline due to disappearing habitat.

Blueweed or viper's-bugloss is both poisonous and a medicinal plant. I guess it all depends on the dose. So don't play with it. It's also considered invasive in a lot of areas. they could all be noxious weeds but it's a fun plant to draw. It gets 1 to 3 feet tall.

One of the birth month flowers for April the pink sweet pea. The other is the daisy. An annual climbing found in woodlands gardens and attached to trellis all over. Usually planted in late winter or very early spring so it might be too late to plant them already. But a birth month flower for my birthday.
