Aaahh - those Erythroniums! So very beautiful! I just planted one yesterday. I can only hope for a carpet like that - even a miniature one would do. They are such wonderfully elegant creatures! Thanks for joining in, Beth!
ReplyDeleteThey are amazing, aren't they? I don't have any in my garden, but I'm wondering how they would do here, since they're growing very naturally along a hiking trail near me. Thanks for hosting!
DeleteLove those trout lilies!
ReplyDeleteMe, too. I noticed the leaves one day when I was hiking, and they weren't blooming yet. So I went back a few days later, and sure enough--there were the cute little flowers. :)
DeleteSo precious, now that is a carpet I want at my house!
ReplyDeleteWouldn't that be nice? I have the Virginia Waterleaf, but not the Trout Lilies. I saw these during a couple of recent hikes.
DeleteGorgeous!
ReplyDeleteThey are so pretty, especially in a large patch. :)
DeleteWow. I had no idea Erythroniums grew so thickly. Of course, here they don't grow at all. Both the foliage and the flowers are lovely and I'm envious.
ReplyDeleteDuring a recent hike, Kris, I noticed thick groupings of them along the trail. They weren't blooming yet, so I went back a few days later, and it was magical to see all the beautiful white flowers.
DeleteWhat a spectacular carpet - spotted leaves are always good.
ReplyDeleteYes, Mother Nature is a great designer. :)
DeleteOh my. Those trout lilies are fabulous.
ReplyDeleteI saw them during a hike--love the foliage alone. But then, I went back a few days later and they were blooming. Even cooler when the plants are blooming!
DeleteBoth the spotted leaves and flowers are so lovely!
ReplyDeleteI think so, too. It was awesome to see them during my hikes--thick carpets of them alongside the trail!
DeleteTrout Lily and Sunshine :-) beautiful carpet indeed.
ReplyDeleteYes! It's so much fun to hike and hunt for wildflowers. :)
DeleteStunning, Beth. I don't grow Erythroniums, but appreciate yours. Isn't spring the BEST season?! P. x
ReplyDeleteYes, spring is awesome! I don't have any Erythroniums in my garden, but there were mass groupings of them along one of my favorite hiking trails. Magical.
DeleteReally beautiful plant--spring has sprung!
ReplyDeleteYes, the spring wildflowers are so very special. They don't last long, which adds to their preciousness.
DeleteThose are great. Now I'm jealous, why don't I have any? Are they ephemeral?
ReplyDeleteHi Jason: I don't have any in my garden either. I saw these while hiking nearby. I might have to try them in the garden, because they really are quite special. Yes, they are ephemerals. The flowers don't last long, and the foliage disappears during the summer.
DeleteI love them. Erythroniums and trilliums do so much better in the States. I wish I had carpets of them.
ReplyDeleteI love them both, too. I don't have Erythroniums in my garden--I saw these during a hike. But I do have Trilliums of several species, and they are about to bloom. :)
DeleteIt is amazing how four days can make such a difference. Each morning when I walk into my garden, I can almost measure the growth. My husband says the same thing about the grass in the yard; however, he is not happy since he does the mowing.
ReplyDeleteJeannie@GetMeToTheCountry
Yes, things change so fast this time of year, and we get busy, too. No time to blink. ;-)
DeleteI love these spring ephemerals, and I alway enjoy photos that demonstrate what changes happen in the garden over a particular space of time. Happy spring!
ReplyDeleteHappy spring, Deb! Spring ephemerals are fascinating, but I wish they would last a little longer. But then I guess they would lose some of their magic.
DeleteBeautiful!
ReplyDeleteHave a wonderful weekend!
Wonderful flowers.
ReplyDeleteGreetings

Thank you, Maria!
DeleteYou take the most wonderful photographs. These are amazing little plants.
ReplyDeleteYou are sweet, Pat. Yes, they are amazing plants!
