Fun, weird, helpful, or little known fact
These newly-blooming flowers will morph from light yellow to white over the next several days. In addition to Marsh marigolds, Globeflowers can be confused with Narcissus-flowered anemones, Anemone narcissiflora, which bloom a bit later and have hairy stems, where Globeflowers are hairless.
