Her name is Eel and I think she was either the runt of the litter or she was malnourished when she was a kitten, because she's fully grown and only 8 pounds. A friend of a friend heard meowing on the 4th of July and found her underneath a parked car. The vet guessed her age at 6 months. She's 4 now and very sweet.

I've been wondering what those are, they're beautiful! This photo was taken at the local park a couple blocks from my apartment. I live in the PNW and pretty much most plants will flourish here, so it's good to hear that it's something that's good for pollinators. I wonder if I should inform the park staff, it's a popular place.

I’m up in that area as well. Yeah, it does a little too well in the region. Despite having some benefits it can become a problem so probably worth letting them know. It’s not devastatingly invasive like some plants but it’s also not native North America.
