Claytonia virginica
This beautiful native woodland spring ephemeral flower is growing in abundance in Morris Park. Â It is in peak bloom, with hillsides covered in white flowers with thin pink stripes. Â If you live in the neighborhood or nearby, come on out and visit this natural treasure! If you are out of state, see if you have them in your natural area, on your lawn or in your woodland.
A great garden specimen, this plant is available at native plant nurseries and plant sales in our area.
This lunchtime walk in Morris Park was enchanting, with blooming flowers at every turn.
The violets are also blooming.
