There was a large turnout with 18 people attending the MetroParks Toledo wildflower walk in Oak Opening Sunday. We went out the silver trail. The weather was a bit chilly, but it kept the mosquitoes away. Flowers that we saw that were in bloom included:
Sweet Cicely, Spring Beauty, May Apple, Jack-in-the-Pulpit, Nodding (red) Trillium, Large White Trillium, Violet (blue, yellow and white), Wild Geranium, Early Meadow Rue, Marsh Marigold, Swamp Buttercup, Chickweed, Bedstraw, Golden Ragwort (Large swaths of this), Spring Cress, and Rue Anenomone.
We saw these plants without blossoms:
Skunk Cabbage, Trout Lily, Hepatic, and Jewel Weed
It was a very good walk !!! - Lots of fun people.
