There were so many pink Lady Slippers blooming along the Beech Forest Trail in Provincetown, I couldn’t decide which photograph I liked best. How often do you get to see 4 of these beauties next to each other in a row? What a treat!
This is the time of the year where you can see lots of different wildflowers along the Beech Forest Trail. If you start out on the boardwalk to the right, you are greeted with this gorgeous landscape view filled with Wild Irises.
The beautiful deep purple Lupine wildflowers are blooming and gorgeous at Fort Hill. It is such a pretty photograph with Nauset Marsh in the background, don’t you think?
And… if you’re there and look very closely way in the background, you can see two beautiful pink Lupine. So pretty…
I found this little “grove” of Bluebell wildflowers blooming in the woods by the side of the road a few years ago. And every year I go back about this time and there they are again. (Click on blog link for other photos.)
As you can see in the photos, they bloom in a variety of colors from white to pink to blue to purple.
Have you ever seen Bluebell wildflowers? So pretty, don’t you think? They are known as “spring ephemeral wildflowers” meaning they grow and bloom in the mid-spring and go dormant by early summer.
I am always so surprised to see so many Lilies of the Valley blooming by the side of the trails here on the Cape. I had always seen them in “gardens” and it is such a treat to see them growing wild here!
Have you seen any Lilies of the Valley on any of your hikes? Gorgeous little flower, don’t you think?
