Description
I was out at Flo's house today to assist her with yard work, mainly digging up dead bushes and other chores she's unable to do because of many factors, one of which is the surgery she had on her hip; she's the one who owns the Spring tine harrow. (see Harrowing experience 1 and 2).
Anyway, while I was out there, I learned about some other plants that she has growing around her property and with camera in hand, after I finished the work, I took some more pictures of plants, either in normal or Auto mode or in macro.
Tonight's presentation is a member of the lily family: the trillium
Below is the information from wiki:
Trillium is a genus of about 40-50 species of perennial herbaceous flowering plants, native to temperate regions of North America and Asia. They used to be treated in the family Trilliaceae or Trillium family, a part of the Liliales or Lily order. The AGP II treats Trilliaceae as a synonym of the family Melanthiaceae. Common names include trillium, wakerobin, Tri Flower, and birthroot. The above ground parts of Trilliums are scapes with three large, leafy bracts with the true leaves reduced to underground papery coverings around the rhizomes.
This picture is just one of many I took today and I will be going out there again on Thursday to do some more work and after I get done, take some more pictures.
Thank you all for the wonderful comments and faves you made with my last upload.
I hope that everyone has a great Wednesday
