We returned Ben to the ferry terminal in the morning but it was a quick drive. I was sad enough saying farewell that I don't remember a thing about the views or even the weather. But in the evening, I took a long walk through James Bay, looking for new summer flowers.
I found some lovely Dahlias, a bundle of tall sweet peas, and two plants I needed the app to identify. A tall perennial with drooping white flowers turned out to be Adam's Needle, or Yucca Filamentosa, while a low, deep orange flower bordering the community garden is simply Garden Nasturtium. I've seen nasturtiums before, but the low sun angle made these shine more brilliantly than any others.
