Right now the garden at the Saginaw Chippewa Academy has the following flowers in bloom: American Alumroot (Heuchera americana), Hairy Beard- tongue (Penstemon hirsutus), Ohio Spiderwort (Tradescantia ohiensis), Wild Strawberry (Fragaria virginiana), Canada Anemone (Anemone canadensis), and Sand Coreopsis (Coreopsis lanceolata).
The bumblebees are particularly interested in the Beard-tongue. The smaller native bees are swarming the Coreopsis.
