This path was literally lined with Rue Anomenoes. Just beautiful.
Here we found a sea of May Apples.
Jack in the pulpit were up and preaching.
Larkspur were popping up all over the place, as were the blue phlox. Just beautiful.
Have a great weekend.
Lisa, is the park very close to your house? You seem to get to go there quite a bit, so I wondered.~~Dee
ReplyDeleteI like the look of the stand of mayapples! Which park is this?
ReplyDeleteHi Dee, the park is just a 4 mile (or so) drive from our house. It is easy to get to. We live in a small community. We go there a lot during fall winter and spring. During summer it is too hot and too many people there.
ReplyDeleteHi Arythrina, it is Ouabache Trails Park.
Lovely tour through an exquisite natural garden. The mayapples are too cute for words, as is the preaching jack-in-a-pulpit! Thanks for sharing this little piece of heaven.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful Lisa, hhmmm smell that clean air. Lovely wild flowers...your Jack in the pulpit is very similar to our Lords and Ladies.
ReplyDeleteHave a fun weekend.
Dear Lisa,
ReplyDeleteI love your park! It looks like a woodlands. So prety withall the wildflowers.
Luna looks as if she is having fun!
Cold snap at my house, frost warnings.
The Rose-Breasted Grosbeaks and the Hummingbirds have returned! I turned one tree over to the Baltimore Orioles. All the tropical birds returned in just the past three days!
The backyard is filled with birds! I am fixing party trays...
Have a fun weekend.

Lisa, may apples, jack in the pulpit! You know what that means..morel mushrooms!! Luna looks like she is doing well and enjoying herself.
ReplyDeleteGreen, green, green... makes me smile! So lovely. You have a great weekend too Lisa! :c)
ReplyDeleteLovely flowers, and I what a nice path. It must be a large park, it looks so natural. Our wildflowers have just begun here.
ReplyDeletethe mayappleas remind me of when we were little and our dad used to take us out in the woods mushroom hunting! We had so much fun exploring.
ReplyDeletethanks for taking us on the walk with you!
Oooh... I miss those woodland phlox. The scent of the ones behind my parents' house is amazing.
ReplyDeleteI enjoyed this trip through your park, especially since you identified all the wildflowers for me. I'm sure Luna enjoyed it, too.
ReplyDeleteI thought I left a comment on your post yesterday, but I probably forgot to hit "publish"! Just wanted to add my compliments on your new fence; it gives your yard a cottage-garden look.
Lovely park Lisa! So many wonderful wildflowers there.
ReplyDeleteI tried, and lost woodland phlox in a previous garden. It didn't survive the first summer Considering my high plant failure rate in this garden, I don't what possessed me to try it here, but now I'm happy I did.
Last year it didn't do much, and from the looks of things earlier this spring, I thought it had died over the winter. But all 6 plants have sprung to life, and 3 of them are spreading. No flower buds yet, but I think it's going to bloom this spring. Yippee!
I want to walk there.. so pretty!!!
