Wildflower report

Found 2 new wildflowers blooming on the eastern side of the hollow today. It is drier and there are generally fewer wildflowers on that side.

• Three-lobed Violet (Violet triloba)
• Fire Pink (Silene virginica)
• Also found a morel mushroom (Morchella esculenta) growing next to the barn today.

Leaves are out on most of the trees in the woods now, so the canopy is quickly closing in and shading the forest floor. There are far fewer wildflowers now than there was just a few days ago.
