To celebrate the return of my Internet connection, I am uploading some wildflower photos supplied by a friend who lives out in the rural area of Broome County, NY, the county I live in. These are from earlier this spring. Enjoy!
This first photo is of a painted trillium. What a pretty splash of pink color in the center.
This next is a trailing arbutus. Again, I could wish for blogosmell, to bring you the fragrance of this wildflower.
Finally, a viburnum. There are a lot of varieties used in landscaping, but this is also a native plant.
I enjoy these photos, and hope to feature this friend's photos again in the near future.
Would you like to see wildflower pictures once a week? (as long as we have a wildflower season in upstate NY, that is? We don't have flowers here year round.) Wednesday might be a natural for this feature. If you want to see more, please feel free to leave a comment.
Yes, Wildflower Wednesdays, please! It's nice to know that these flowers exist in real life, and not just in books. A whole different set of blooms in the South...
