A Plant A Day Till Spring – Day 77 – Spring Beauty

“Claytonia caroliniana” – Spring 2013 – Frick Park – Pittsburgh, PA

A Plant a Day till Spring” will highlight one plant a day, starting on the winter solstice (December 21, 2013)… And ending on the vernal equinox (March 20, 2014)… If all goes to plan I will be starting with old Snowdrop photos from 2013… And ending with new photos of Snowdrops in 2014…

Claytonia… Better known by its common name “Spring Beauty”…One of the first wildflowers to bloom in the spring… It is a very small plant growing to around 5” tall… Typically when you find one you will find a thousand more growing close…

My package should be arriving today… I am so excited I can barely type… Concentration eludes me… I had planned to do another plant today… But I had to give up… I just can’t stop watching the window for the mailman…

Why fight it…
