i took this trail with a friend in order to scout out any possible wildflowers in advance of my garden club hike this saturday. lots of jack-in-the-pulpit, wild gensing, and violets, plus a few i had to come home to identify. nice walk.
lots and lots of these in spots, and they should be in full flower by saturday.
and the same for these. there were a lot of unopened buds. interesting fact about these (from the connecticut botanical society)—they have the unusual feature of being based on sevens: seven leaves, seven petals, and seven sepals.
this hike is in the hikefinder.
