Wildflowers of Kentucky: Coneflower, escaped



2017-06-18 - Adair County, KY - Photo by Ed Waggener, ColumbiaMagazine.com(c), shot supervised by Linda (c).
We're sure hoping that coneflowers, more prevalent since the era of Conservation Reserve Enhancement Program - help us, surely some acronymist among the Feds have a shorter name for this) added a new dimension to a great USDA's not-farming payment system - for fun and profit days - which all of us enjoyed, though may not as much by some as others who snidely demeaned the program as 'welfare for the rich and landed' - proves to be 100% beneficial to the environment, and should targeted for an open air gas chamber extinction of the roads people. These coneflowers seemed to have excaped their cropland, risking their lives on a right-of-way, enhancing Agri-Tourism Economic Development for the masses. We wonder: Do coneflowers have any other benefit, other than stand around being beautiful? - EW
