Fresh green leaves of Fringed Corn Lily

I’m not sure what it is about spring green...💚🌱

I can never get enough! Mixing vibrant greens is almost as fun as finding them on the trail.

Spring is in the air and our biotic surveys have begun. Weekly walks to record what's in bloom. Douglas Iris has a long bloom cycle (Feb-June) found on the west coast from So. California to Oregon.

I’m wild about this wild-looking wildflower - Asarum caudatum / Wild Ginger. I couldn’t resist breaking out the macro-lens. Its color, texture, and form are a visual treat!
