Boneset and Blue Lobelia



The white flowers are boneset (Eupatorium perfoliatum) and the blue flowers are blue lobelia (Lobelia siphilitica).  I found this in the ditch just east of the new highway US 231 that was built  just west of West Lafayette, just a short distance north of the State Road 26 intersection.
