STOPS ALONG THE WAY

A LITTLE COLOUR IN THE MIX (THREE PHOTOGRAPHS)

These are all very different flowers, what makes them similar is that they’re all found in the wild.  The poppy was growing in a local wildlife garden, the white trillium (Ontario’s provincial flower) in a wooded area and the lily in a laneway.  The trillium is one of our first spring flowers, reaching full bloom in May; the yellow and green contrasting nicely with the white of the petals.  The other flowers were taken in July. Once the cold weather gives way to spring, I look forward to watching the cycle of new growth begin again.

    The poppy has such a soft colour and is set off nicely by the green.

    What a wonderful job you did of capturing the texture of these flowers, Belinda. The papery quality of the poppy, the elegance of the trillium.

    We have wild lilies up here. I remember being shocked the first time I saw them. It was shortly after we moved here and they were growing along the roadside in the country. I’ve also seen some small wild orchids.
    Love photos! 🙂

    Nice, and I like the fact they are all wild. In the swamps here , not marsh though, there is an abundance of flowers. Wild, but I’m not sure they didn’t originate in the old plantation gardens. The older plantations had huge gardens, I’m sure the wind and storms have scattered seeds everywhere over the last 200 years.

    While they are all lovely images, I love the poppy – so appropriate for November.
