When we saw the big patch of fireweed, we had to stop and pick some, so I took the opportunity to get a picture a little closer up. Each of these flower spikes is about five feet tall and there are numerous blossoms on each spike. This patch was being pollinated by gobs of wasps, but the wasps were thankfully unconcerned about us and left us alone.
Five feet tall, wow I would not have guessed. Pretty color.
It is beautiful, for sure. I should have said ‘up to’ 5 feet. Some were shorter.
