More wildflowers

This time closer to home. It is that time of year again, after all.
These are all from along the Nathan Chapman trail in Puyallup, Washington, except for the first one, which is from the rainforest trail at the Carbon River entrance to Mt. Rainier National Park.

Skunk cabbage. Because a local spring wildflower photo essay is not complete without skunk cabbage.

Serviceberry blossoms.

Wild strawberry.

 

Western bleeding hearts. They’re all over the place this time of year.

Siberian miner’s lettuce, or candy flower, depending on your preferences. Both common names for the same plant.

The next two photos are really blurry, but I’m including them for the sake of completeness.  My apologies.

Salmonberry blossom.

Wild currant blossoms.

Elderberry blossoms.

Cranesbill.

And, no, this isn’t a wildflower, but I’m including it, anyway.

This is the view on a clear day from the ballfields at the north end of the Chapman trail.
