The Endless Summer Flower Farm V
This is my fifth and final post on the Endless Summer Flower Farm. I would like to sincerely thank Phil and Karen Clark for allowing me to tramp through their gardens, camera and tripod in hand. If you want any information at about dahlias, please visit their web site at, "Endless Summer Flower Farm". I hope you have enjoyed this sharing of my visit there. If you would like to visit the gardens yourself, it is on East Fork Road in Camden, Maine. Please keep in mind, the 47 dahlia blossom photos I have included is but a sample of what they actually have. If you are ever in the area, it would be well worth a visit.

The Endless Summer Flower Farm
Ok, here we go! Today I made my much anticipated visit to The Endless Summer Flower Farm. I will split my visit into five separate posts, one introductory and the other four flower shots. It was one of the most enjoyable afternoons I have spent all summer. For an inexperienced shutter bug who has a hobby of photographing flowers, it was like being a kid in a candy shop. I sincerely hope you will not only enjoy my work but will find a way to visit this fabulous adventure. The owners love to have visitors. The sell some of the most incredible flower arrangements I have ever seen. To top it all off, they are wonderful people. If you enjoy my efforts, please comment below.

Challenge Solution
Two people came very close. This plant (weed) is the Milk Thistle. The one I photographed was at least eight feet high, an in and a half in diameter, with six or so large branches.
Background: Milk thistle has been used medicinally for over 2,000 years, most commonly for the treatment of liver and gallbladder disorders. A flavonoid complex called silymarin can be extracted from the seeds of milk thistle and is believed to be the biologically active component. The terms "milk thistle" and "silymarin" are often used interchangeably.
