This native North American plant grows in my garden in Fitzroy Harbour, Ontario, Canada. My work illustrates the growing stages of this hardy perennial plant: spring-time embryonic buds, emerging spikes of pea-shaped flowers that attract butterflies, bees and hummingbirds in summer, and fresh green seed pods that turn a deep blue-black and lose their seeds in the fall.
