Lucky quadrilliums, anyone? Large white trillium and wakerobin with a few extra parts. Quadrilliums are rare mutants and always exciting to find. Now you can wear one!

Somewhere Under The Rainbow
Somehow we thought the rain wouldn’t fall upon our hike today, until it did. And so we sat in the truck for about 15-20 minutes, waiting for the drops to slow down, which they did.
The rain, however, enhanced everything. And as the sun came out, the water and warmth combined to create a Black Fly Festival, one which will last for several more weeks.
But, April/May showers do bring May flowers,…

Hi! I just found your blog and wanted to share a couple pictures I took a while back!
Not sure what any of them are but the bush in the third picture was gorgeous!
The first and third pictures were on top of a ridge south of Cle Elum in summer, and the white flowers were north west of there near Cooper Lake, and it was in early to mid spring
I know you’re on the west side and that’s your specialty but do you happen to know what any of these are?
The top left is one of my favorites, it's my profile picture too. That's red flowering currant or Ribes sanguineum. Popular hummingbird plant and the leaves smell really good when crushed imho.
The top left is probably Trillium ovatum, more commonly known as western trillium. These are bulb plants that go totally underground when dormant. Their seeds produce a substance that ants like to eat, so ants will carry the seeds back to their homes and it spreads that way. Sometimes if conditions aren't right they won't come up for multiple years in a row.
I've never seen the last one before but my friend who's another admin on this blog helped me key it out and we think it's most likely Ribes lobbii. I guess it's commonly known as gummy gooseberry?? Apparently the berries are edible but not particularly palatable because of the sticky bitter hairs.

A Smile of a Mondate
In case you are missing snow, I thought I’d bring you some today. But only because about a month ago, the day after Palm Sunday and a major snowstorm here in the north country, My Guy and I went to Diana’s Baths in Bartlett, New Hampshire, to hike.
It was the first of two storms in a matter of less than two weeks that dropped almost two feet of snow each and transformed Lucy Brook into a winter…
