Pink wintergreen Pyrola asarifolia
Happy Canada Day!
Wintergreen is a beautiful pink flower growing in moist open forest. The round leaves stay green all winter.
Other wildflowers blooming right now are bedstraw, yarrow, spirea, indian paintbrush, oxeye daisy, coralroot, hawkweed, buttercup, bunchberry, anemone.
What a beautiful flower, especially in contrast to the green around it. Such delicate little flowers!
I agree, Claudia, it’s beautiful and delicate; there are not too many around here so they are special.
Great picture Annerose. I think we have something similar here.
seems like we share all kinds of things, certain flowers, a love for trees…
I think we’re probably related somehow. 🙂
Hehehe, that sounds so likely! At the very least we are related in our love for the forest.
Indeed!
