I (Laura) took a stroll through Mertensia Park, Fishers Park and along Domine Trail on a sunny Monday afternoon (April 15, 2024). Here's what I saw:
 |
| Lots of WHITE trout lilies! |
 |
| as well as yellow trout lilies |
 |
| cut leaf tooth wort |
 |
| early meadow rue around trout lilies |
 |
| only three patches of lesser celandine. Great work to our dig crew! |
 |
| this would have been lesser celandine if we didn't dig in March |
 |
| trout lily with mertensia leaves |
 |
| These will be blooming soon enough |
 |
