Wow, what a nice selection of natives. State parks are the best.
ReplyDeleteYes, they are. :) This particular SP is underappreciated; it offers so many ecosystems to enjoy--prairies, woodlands, lakeshore, camping, hiking, and so much more.
DeleteDelicate beauties that you don't see in my part of the country!
ReplyDeleteSpring flowers are beautiful everywhere. :)
DeleteI LOVED this! Springtime in the Wisconsin woods a favorite time of mine.
ReplyDeleteThanks, Carla. I love the woods, the prairies, the lakes...all of it, in every season! (Except in February. ;-) )
DeleteThey look so healthy. Beautiful!
ReplyDeleteThe Wild Geraniums are really quite spectacular this year! And the Shooting Stars are quite plentiful, too. :)
DeleteLovely photos, Beth! It's so nice to vAisit state and national parks; thanks for sharing your finds!
ReplyDeleteThank you, Tina. I agree: We are so fortunate to have such amazing state parks and national parks!
DeleteSpectacular! So lovely to see so many native plants in a natural setting!
ReplyDeleteYes, it's a great, underappreciated state park. :)
DeleteWell well well, you got ahead of me. I have been walking the nature trails this week at Eagle Heights of the UW housing area. Living almost next door to you while my spouse goes for another Masters. Will be posting some of the same flowers you did here. Love this place!
ReplyDeleteAwesome! Have fun! I'll look forward to your posts about the Madison area while you're here. :)
DeleteGreat shots. Happy to see P. virginiana. Mine has finished blooming but looks like it will have hardly any fruit. Maybe will have to wait another year or two for that.
ReplyDeleteThanks, Jason. I don't think my Chokecherry here at home had any blooms this year...weird. But it's nice to see them at the state park.
DeleteGorgeous shots of multi-tasking plants .. for some unknown reason I have not tried Shooting Stars .. one year I will have to correct that error because yours looks lovely !
ReplyDeleteThank you. :) These plants were at the state park. I tried Shooting Stars in my garden from seed planted last fall, but they haven't come up. Maybe next year?
DeleteSo delicate and dainty!
ReplyDeleteYes, true. :) They have to be really tough in our climate, though. ;-)
DeleteThere is no perennial geranium that I wouldn't like! Geranium m. is lovely!
ReplyDeleteI love them, too. :)
DeleteLots of beauties to enjoy there!
ReplyDeleteYes, the season of growth is so special. I envy your climate; although I think I would miss having just a touch of snow. ;-)
DeleteGuess what!
ReplyDeleteOut of the corner of my eye, and as I took a breath,
Jack in the Pulpit you sent me years ago decided
to like Michigan weather. A bit frazzled but I am sure
it is him! Crazzzzy fun to see it. I will try for a picture,
although the beautiful part was quite tattered.
Ah, awesome! Well, hopefully it will return again next year. I can also send you some seeds, if you'd like. :)
DeleteLove your photos Beth . . .
ReplyDeleteThank you, Lynne. :)
