You only need one or two wild roses open to get bathed in heavenly perfume. This marsh rose (Rosa pisocarpa) beckoned from afar

Flowers now, berries later: a thimbleberry flower (Rubus parviflorus) amid its huge leaves, and a salal (Gaultheria shallon) stem of barely open, very hairy flowers.

Red huckleberry (Vaccinium parviflorum). I almost missed the flowers this year! They're so green! Two weeks ago i thought I had plenty of time. Now they've mostly set fruit.

Miner's lettuce (Claytonia perfoliata) is really going to town! It is very tasty when freshly picked.

I may plant it next winter along with my mache -
Red elderberry (Sambucus racemosa) growing in the woods understory. Apparently indigenous peoples used the flowering of this shrub as a, signal to fish halibut.

Wild ginger (Asarum caudatum) on the park trail. I usually miss the flowers, but decided to stop and check today. Of course, the mud made walking interesting #Photography #SeattleWashington #SeattleParks #SeattleSpring #CowenPark #NativePlants #NativePlantsOfThePNW #BloomScrolling

Silk tassel bush (Garrya elliptica) blooming in the park. Although it doesn't grow natively quite this far north, it thrives in our climate.

There is a real tea bush (Camellia sinensis) growing in the P-Patch! I did a double take when I saw it.

Monty and I wandered through the P Patch after I verified that my green manure wasn't thriving (I left it too late, or the rainy season started too early, so straw time😁). I never noticed the memorial benches before.

Some more mad dahlias this summer, in the Picardo P-Patch

There is a relatively large roundabout on top of a hill where 3 streets meet in Ravenna Neighborhood. Inside, it hides a miniature park, with benches, a Little Free Library, and mostly native plant landscaping. A little free photo bombing by Monty.

I found only three hazelnuts (Corylus cornuta) in the bushes...and there are lots of bushes in the understory here! #Photography #SeattleWashington #SeattleSummer #SeattleParks #RavennaPark #NativePlants #FruitScrolling #NativePlantsOfThePNW

Misted the love-in-a-mist. Watering the children's garden early in the morning. I love those seed pods!

A propos of nothing, Seward Park by Lake Washington on a lovely day

A visit to the P-Patch: 1. We painted the wheelbarrows ugly pink and branded them because theft! Too bad that a bad apple can spoil the community trust. 2. Potatoes! Not yet, but soon enough, maybe to eat baby potatoes with fresh peas 3. Someone made a pretty little nook amid the vegetable patches 4. This is a house across the street from the main entrance: the rhodies are still blooming! There are other flowers getting ready to bloom as the rhodies fade.

Tamed wild iris growing in the pollinator gardens at the Picardo P-Patch (Iris douglasii)
I love the frilly edges on those long petals
