I don't know. This has different FW and HW markings than Drepana.

That smell will never go out of style.

Thanks J! I figured you would come through. Asteroid moth is a fantastic name, but I figure I will remember Goldenrod hooded owlet better since my house is surrounded by goldenrod.

Bliss!

I have been trying to ID this species for over a year! So glad you spotted one and put it up. All I have is a crappy cell phone pic.

This is a bizarre plant. It took a bit of research to come up with a likely suspect. Violets with notched petals are uncommon even outside this country, and I've never seen an individual with basically cleft parts like this. Based on the photograph, a positive ID is probably impossible (at least from me, I'm not a Viola specialist), but I believe this is some variety, forma, or defective individual of Viola renifolia. The leaves might provide a positive ID, but unfortunately, these were yet unfurled. Still, they have the same general appearance and the flower structure is the same as well - apart from the cleft petals and dull lip-vein coloring.

Anyway, cool plant! That's not one you see every day.

This is a double-flowered specimen.

Probably western sand cherry (Prunus besseyi).

Pretty fast growing when young, expect it to slow down with age. In cultivation, chinkapin oak usually reaches 40-60.'

Definitely Setaria. I think you're right with S. faberi.
