Trilliums, Magnolia and more!

Wow, I think Minesing is the idea spot for Trilliums! I bet it's the high water table that makes them propagate so prolifically....

Ahh, the flowers of the Magnolia tree. I think this shrubby tree is an ideal tree for the residential landscape. It has beautiful large leaves that come out after flowering and it doesn't get huge and overpowering.

Bleeding Heart flowers are so unusual and a favorite of children everywhere!

Another unusual flower is the native "Jack in the Pulpit". Keep you eyes open on your forest walks...they have similar leaves to the Trillium, but a little lighter green and colour with a waxy appearance.
