Imperfect Perfect: Picture of the Week

Beauty is in the eye of the beholder. To the gardener, this Echinacea purpurea bloom is imperfect, and the gardener is inclined to remove it. To the pollinator, this bloom is a perfect feast. I'm learning to tolerate some imperfection so as to benefit my little pollinator friends. They need all the help they can get.
