These are one of my favorite wild plants. We're at least 2 months away from ours blooming.

One of my wife's favourite every year.

Rest of mine are just poking up but this one has everything it wants in life apparently.

My favourite Colorado wildflower. When you find a big alpine patch of them, the smell is so intense that it perfumes the air.

Never seen a big wild patch of them. I bet. Seeing lots of anything at once like that always kinda gets me. Saw a ton of mayapples over the weekend and it felt incredible.

Why native plants?

According to the The National Audubon Society:

Restoring native plant habitat is vital to preserving biodiversity. By creating a native plant garden, each patch of habitat becomes part of a collective effort to nurture and sustain the living landscape for birds and other animals.
