I finally remembered to take a camera (well,
a phone) on our near-nightly walk around the loop with the Beastie Grrrlz, so now I can share some of the little wild flowers we see along the road and in the forest. Some are familiar, some are not and I don't know if any are native or invasive, either. I apologize for the photo quality, but all is in shadow at that time of evening and there is a surprising amount of wind in the 1-6" off the ground layer.

I saw these for the first time just before we got back to our part of the road this evening, but then saw two more right by the driveway. |
|
And this little yellow number I didn't notice until I went back outside to find the ones in the next shot again. |

|
The blooms on these are just a couple millimeters long. |
|
I'm pretty sure I've seen these all over suburban Washington County, Oregon. |
|
These little lavender lovelies look familiar, too. |

When Eric was reading up on the buttercups, he thinks he saw that these are related. |
The little purple ones may be vinca, mine are blooming now, too.

Ooo. The top purple one or the penultimate purple one?
ReplyDeleteSuch delicate little pretties! I think the one with purple & yellow ones might be related to the Columbine family. The bright yellow one near the top might be yarrow. My favorite ones are the blueish/purple ones in the 4th photo, so pretty!
ReplyDeleteOoo, good to know!
