It's a pleasant August morning. Let's go for a walk.
There is more going on than I expected.
Pearly Everlasting
Cascara
Teasel
Queen Anne's Lace
Bull Thistle in bloom
The seed heads
Cow's Parsnip seed heads
Bright red berries
Berries of False Solomon's Seal
Chalk white berries
Columbia Lily Seed heads
As a kid, I used to strip these seeds of the plant and use them as 'food' for my tea parties.
This looks like a hank of skunk's fur
Snowberries
Blackberries
Oxalis
Early signs of fall Vine Maple
Leaves on the bottom have an orange cast
Leaves on the top are redder.
See you next week!
What beautiful plants to see as you walk, Beth!
ReplyDeleteMy vine maple is as green as can be. I bought it for color and so far I haven't had any and it is three years old. I think maybe it gets too much shade. It was a lovely walk!
