I'll be heading up to Evans Notch this weekend to get a peak. C.R. Tuesday, May 19. The two species are very similar and frequently confused. Wednesday, May 20. Let's see, black flies in East Orland are pretty much a 3, but nothing a bugnet or a big cigar won't deter.
Wildflowers are wonderful, though some going by.
Red trillium has been in flower for awhile. Jack in the Pulpits and yellow violets are blooming by Craig Brook. Trailing arbutus and hepatica have probably gone by. Solomon's seal, sessile bellwort, bluets and anemones are in flower, plus blueberries. Wednesday, May 20.
