Joe-pye weed (Eutrochium purpureum)

A lovely shot of a common native species. The Genus name has change from the familiar Eupatorium to Eutrochium, and you will find this species listed under both. It is a tall, showy plant of wetland sites, but does well in gardens too, and is very attractive to butterflies, bees and other insects. Diane photographed this in the Butterfly Meadow at FWG.
