Got to get some new photos up -- wood anemones there now. <br /><br />I had no idea one could buy wildflower plants at the FD plant sale! Guess I will have to try and get there next year!<br /><br />I think your dandelion-like blossom may be Coltsfoot. Check that out in your wildflower book and see what you think!Mrs.Thttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00392321745556290343noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15265988.post-82818173412277025572011-05-11T16:09:21.045-04:002011-05-11T16:09:21.045-04:00We picked up some bloodroot at the fire dept plant...We picked up some bloodroot at the fire dept plant sale last year and Mr. D planted it out in the woods near the driveway. I noticed this year that it is blooming... yea.<br /><br />I do love wildflowers. We have little yellow "trout lilies" all over the property. They go by lots of names, but when we were digging in the end of the driveway to plant our iris and daylilies... the bulbs kept showing up. They must be a "biennial" some were dormant and others were blooming.<br /><br />We also have some sort of yellow flower that showed up this year. It looks a little like a dandilion without the typical leaves. I haven't found that one in my wildflower book yet. <br /><br />The wildflowers are all different here than they were in VT. Just a short distance away, but a whole new batch of interesting flora.<br /><br />Thank you for sharing your pictures with us.Mrs. Doughttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07703464320152527607noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15265988.post-56188973888218396772011-05-11T08:47:36.755-04:002011-05-11T08:47:36.755-04:00Thanks, ladies, for stopping by to visit my wildfl...Thanks, ladies, for stopping by to visit my wildflower garden. I need to get out there soon and take some more pics. The bloodroot blossoms are gone and there are wind anemones now, plus some violets here and there.<br /><br />Yes, isn't it nice, Darlene, when the flowers come up each year and we remember those who planted them. That's one thing that's so special about our wildflower garden -- my daughter (now 34 with a family of her own) planted many of them in her early teens, and many of the plants were given to her by her grandpa who is now with the Lord. Very special memories there!<br /><br />Arlene -- 90 degrees? Amazing! It's around 60ยบ here today but I really don't mind. Hot weather will be here all too soon...Mrs.Thttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00392321745556290343noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15265988.post-27119204547952603812011-05-10T22:26:37.279-04:002011-05-10T22:26:37.279-04:00Pretty flowers!

My daughter planted them when she was 17 years old and she is now 27 years old. Every year when they come up, I think of her!Darlenehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04033392671032665417noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15265988.post-88333253249486224142011-05-10T12:09:01.053-04:002011-05-10T12:09:01.053-04:00Beautiful flowers...love the daffodils!
