And in case you didn’t get enough trillium photos the other day, here are a few more photos of one of my favorite spring wildflowers

Deep Rose Purple Trillium – Trillium grandiflorum deep rose trilllium – photographed at Mt. Cuba Center. I’m assuming these are a cultivar of the usual white Trillium grandiflorum. While those do turn pink once they are pollinated, it’s not this shade of pink. I can find no record of a native Deep Rose Purple Trillium in any of my wildflower books.

As promised, here are a few more of my azalea and rhododendron photos from this year. While their bloom was short this year due to weather – it was spectacular!

Yellow Lady’s Slippers are one of my favorite spring wildflowers. This year, I had the chance to photograph some wonderful Kentucky Yellow Lady’s Slippers at Mt Cuba Center in Delaware. I thought I’d share a few of my photos of these wonderful flowers with you today
