In Their Season

Roses fade with winter’s cold snap, While the goldenrod will flourish As does the lovely bishop’s cap, Roses fade with winter’s cold snap, Take their rest with a welcome nap While garden soils will renourish, Roses fade with winter’s cold snap While the goldenrod will flourish.

I am now seeking "lovely bishop’s cap," on Google, for it sounds beautiful! And I wonder if I have it and call it another name?

It's mostly a desert succulent plant, Caren, but I used it because it rhymed. I suppose it would grow in your neck of the woods, though.
