Goat's-Beard: Pretty, introduced, and gloriously puffy

Yes, Goat’s-Beard may be an introduced wildflower on the Prairies, but I remain fascinated by its lovely symmetry in both the lemony-yellow flower phase, and the super-duper, oversized seedhead phase.

To me, it's the super-sized seedhead of Goat's-beard that makes it so lovely. © SB

The flower - a light, bright yellow - is also attractive, in its own way. © SB
