Spring! Finally!
Over the coming weeks, new spring ephemeral wildflowers will start popping up in the woodland area of the Native Plant Trail. In a stroll through the woodland this morning, we spotted Virginia Bluebells (Mertensia virginia), Toadshade Trillium (Trillium sessile), a few cheery Wood Poppies (Stylophotum diphyllum), and a smattering of Rue-anemone (Thalictrum thalictroides). Largeflower Bellwort (Uvularia grandiflora) and Jacob's Ladder (Polemonium reptans) are on deck.
Stay tuned to our social media pages and website for wildflower updates this spring!
