Watching wildflowers can bring you much enjoyment and satisfaction. The amazing diversity of shapes, sizes, textures, colors and forms among wildflowers provide many challenges for those who wish to identify them. By noting the difference in the structure of the four main parts- the flower, the leaf, the stem, and the root, you can gain knowledge that will help you in naming a plant. Pay attention to wildflowers and you will sharpen your observation skills and become more aware of your natural environment. Close inspection of an ordinary flower, such as Eyebright, can delight you and reveal to you a beauty not surpassed by any hybrid grown in a greenhouse for the market-place. So the next time you walk the river trail watch and enjoy our wildflowers! |
