Where can you find flowers in the region?
Hereâs more about whatâs blooming and whatâs coming up in the coming weeks at public gardens, as of April 14.
The recent rain and cooler temperatures has helped slow the progression of flowers in the park, says naturalist Mary Ann Schlegel.Â
Along the wildflower walk, spring beauties, violets and Dutchmanâs breeches are in bloom along with plants like bedstraw, chickweed and lesser celandine, which some consider weeds. Trilliums are starting to bloom and bloodroot has gone to seed.
In another area of the park near Indian Rock, shade and wet conditions mean the plants are a few steps behind. Here, near the intersection of Rockford and Williamson road, bloodroot and cut leaf toothwort are blooming. Trout lilies will open soon.
