I joined the walking group last Wednesday for a walk in Windsor, VT at Paradise Park. There was no rain that day but the trail next to the lake was muddy in parts. As I said yesterday with all our rain plants are looking lush.
An assortment of leaf shapes in this photo along with a few blackberries forming.
At one end of the lake the water lilies make a cover.
A delicate flower on a climber, maybe morning glory?
Sweet peas
And these were named for me as Canadian lilies.
Here's the final narrow path that took as to an access point and a street where we found the cafe Boston Dreams - a spot for a hot or cold drink and conversation before returning by Main Street to our cars.
Another walk planned for this Wednesday will keep us on a road. Trails are too slick.
...and fortunately there didn't seem to be any poison ivy.
ReplyDeleteI'd never seen those lilies before...very beautiful.
ReplyDeleteLooks like a nice walk, Marcia, and hope there were no soggy trails with all the recent rains.
ReplyDeleteTo answer your question on y blog post about how Frosty's owners can survive with only being open weekends in Brunswick, ME, there are a couple of other locations in the state and also a production facility opened in 2023 as the product is also delivered to retail locations. I updated the blog to include this info, so thanks for the question.
Very interesting flowers I have never seen them before. The ground is so saturated now best to stay on pavement.

I had never heard of Canadian Lilies.
ReplyDeleteIt certainly looks very lush after all the rain you had. Some interesting flowers you have photographed.
ReplyDeleteI love the tapestry of leaves. And the Canada lilies are a treat--we don't see them here.
